• Neway Anchorlok has developed an air suspension system, NSE, with axle manufacturer Societe Mecanigue Bernon (5MB). Neway will supply SMB with the NSE using a nonwelded axle connection; it will also be available with a welded axle connection to other manufacturers. The system is to be built at a new Factory, creating 50 jobs.
NSE90 (For 9.0-tonne axles) and NSE105 (10.5-tonne axles) were developed from the Neway RL overslung suspension range but are 10% lighter. The key change is a new Usection main suspension beam. There is also a new tapered hanger bracket which incorporates the shock-absorber mounting. This is quicker to fit and allows the suspension to be supplied to the trailer builder assembled complete with the shock absorber.
The NSE90 is suitable for all types of European onhighway trailers and available with ride heights from 290-490mm. Both systems can be supplied in single, tandem and triaxle Formats and both have a three-year warranty.
