Mining Trucks with Unbreakable Suspension Systems by HEMSCHEIDT

Dr. Wöhrmann explained, “HEMSCHEIDT is currently focusing on introducing its products to China, and intends to turn its focus on Brazil next.” Dr. Wöhrmann also pointed out that the company is able to produce their systems for as few as one vehicle, or as many as 100 at a time and these systems can be produced according to a customer’s specification within six to ten weeks.  “Our systems are off-road robust and maintenance free; they save the mining trucks owners as much as USD 20 thousand an hour in down time.”

 

HEMSCHEIDT will further benefit from a new trend in off-road applications for independent suspension systems, since it develops and produces linkages for those systems and independent suspension systems are particularly useful in Brazil. “They have a lot of mining applications which require a lot of mining vehicles, so there could be a need for our suspensions systems to integrate into their mining vehicles and tanks,” explained Dr. Wöhrmann.

 

As a highly specialized supplier of chassis components, German-based HEMSCHEIDT sees great potential synergies in Brazil’s mining industry and also looks forward to putting forth its solutions for Brazil’s other commercial vehicle needs as well.

 

 

 

 

Developing and producing shock absorbers since 1929, HEMSCHEIDT Fahrwerktechnik has built a reputation as one of the leading suppliers to the commercial vehicle industry for special vehicles such as mining vehicles, wheeled and track vehicles, military vehicles, tanks, and articulated buses for local public transport.

 

For more than twenty years, the company has also been producing hydropneumatic chassis and articulation systems for commercial vehicles, concentrating on chassis components that can handle the highest load limits.

 

HEMSCHEIDT’S HEPLEX® suspension system improves driving conditions and vehicle stability under off-road conditions. “The goal of our products is to make the transport of people and goods safer and more comfortable, even under the most difficult conditions,” said HEMSCHEIDT Managing Director, Dr. Mark Wöhrmann.  As such, Brazil’s mining industry makes it a logical potential customer for HEMSCHEIDT.
