An axle is fixed with the rotating wheel, rotating with them or their parts with the rotating wheels around them. Hence an axle is a central shaft for a rotating wheel. An axle can also be classified as the integral part of the vehicle as full floating, semi floating, front and rear axle. The real axle function can be used only on those vehicles which have rear wheel drive. The front axle is supporting the front wheels of the vehicle. The front axle also supports the weight, helps in effortless use in steering, absorbing the shocks due to patchy roads and also absorbing the sudden torque due to braking. An axle system transfers the torque by differential method to wheels and engine differentiates the torque to vehicle. The type of axle in the vehicle depends upon the function of the vehicle and also the position where the axle is being fitted in the vehicle. Commercial vehicles such as trucks, heavy trucks or buses may have two or more than two live axles fitted with the vehicles depending upon the type of application and type of vehicle. Likely passenger cars will have one live axle and one dead axle in the vehicle.
Automotive Axle System Market: Drivers & Restraints
