A cost-effective solution
SKF steering units can simplify current designs. They are easy to install, mainten ance-free and reliably fulfil the demands of industrial and off-highway vehicle by-wire steering systems. When considered over the entire product lifetime, these units are a very cost-effective solution. Possible applications Forklifts Harvesters Tractors Construction site equipment Electric vehicles Boats
Features Compact input device for steering wheel position, steering speed and direction Redundant steering signal output Steering feel constant or variable Non-contact sensors
Benefits Enables more ergonomic cabin design, improved operator comfort and increased productivity. Reduction in components enhances system reliability. Redundant signals and robust design provide an extra margin of safety. Integrated and maintenance-free technology reduces lifetime cost.

soon as the steering wheel is moved in the opposite direction. The steering unit end-stop positions are programmable, unlike mechan ical or hydraulic steering systems where the end-stops are fixed. In addition, the steering ratio can be programmed to vary with vehicle speed or other operating parameters.
