What is trailer mechanical suspension and the advantages and disadvantages of mechanical suspension

    Definition of mechanical suspension and advantages and disadvantages of mechanical suspension.

    What is mechanical suspension?

    Mechanical suspension, also known as leaf suspension, dampens the shocks and vibrations of the trailer, similar to air suspension.

    Advantages of mechanical suspension:

    Cost-effective: mechanical suspension is usually relatively inexpensive to manufacture and maintain, making it the preferred choice for most economical vehicles.

    Reliability: due to their relative simplicity, mechanical suspension systems are usually reliable. Its simple design and fewer components reduce the likelihood of failure.

    Ease of maintenance: Mechanical suspension systems are relatively easy to maintain and repair, and can be handled by a standard vehicle repairer. This reduces the complexity and cost of repairs.

    Disadvantages and limitations of mechanical suspension systems

    However, mechanical suspensions do have some drawbacks and may be limited in certain situations:

    Limited adjustability: the relatively limited adjustability of mechanical suspensions makes it difficult to flexibly adjust the driving characteristics of the vehicle and the stiffness of the suspension.

    Lack of adaptability to a dynamic environment: the relatively slow response of mechanical suspension systems under different driving conditions makes it difficult to adapt to rapidly changing road conditions.
