Simply better:
- Improved early detection of snaking risk
- Faster brake access
- Use up to GA of 3.5 t
- Optimised weight and design
- Horizontal installation (installation space and ground clearance)
Simply clever: Evasive manoeuvres or side winds can cause trailers to start swerving. AL-KO Trailer Control actively counteracts these forces. It detects the swerving motion directly at the axle and automatically brakes the trailer gently.
Keep safely in your lane:
The emergency system reacts automatically when the swaying of the car/trailer combination exceeds limit values.
- The driving behaviour of the trailer is permanently being monitored by the ATC.
- Sensors detect dangerous lateral movements directly on the trailer axle, even before an ESP system for trailers installed in the car is able to sense the pendulum movement.
- The trailer will immediately – without any action on the part of the driver – brake gently and return to a stable driving position.
- Braking automatically puts the trailer back on track, i.e. there is little risk of a rear-end collision due to sudden, sharp braking. Overtaking manoeuvres are not affected.
