The hydraulic brakes remain the most common type of braking system.

The air braking system remains, for the moment, the system giving the greatest flexibility and power. As the loads transported are ever-increasing, it is absolutely necessary to have the most efficient braking system. The Quadra, X-Trem, Volumetra, Euroliner and Tetra-Linerspreaders are standard fitted with it.

For machines that can be hitched to several tractors, the dual braking system (hydraulic and air brakes) can be proposed in option.

The machines fitted with air brakes have a standard 3-position manual braking regulator (fully loaded, half-loaded, unloaded). In option, it is possible to install a system in proportion to the load. Either on boggie or hydraulic suspension, the quantity of air allowed in the braking circuit will be adapted according to the load in the machine.

As an option, it can be replaced by a device that regulates the braking power in proportion to the load, which is measured by a level float gauge. When your spreader is fitted with a hydraulic suspension, the braking system in proportion to the load may be operated by a proportional regulator connected to the hydraulic circuit of this axle suspension. The pressure in the hydraulic circuit will allow to adjust the air pressure in the air braking system.
