Rear Axle Adjustment System


Fori Germany recently designed, manufactured and supplied a new rear suspension adjustment stand for the Audi Brussels plant. The rear axle is delivered by an existing conveyor system and automatically raised to the setting position. Once located, the suspension is clamped and the measurement of the camber takes place without contact. After the suspension is located the installed vehicle force is applied to the module, force displacement is included within the equipment to simulate vehicle loading. Once the measurement is complete, the required adjustment is completed automatically by appropriate torque units. After completing the adjustment process, the rear axle is placed back on the tool carrier and extended out of the protected area of the adjustment cell. Consists of the following components: • Protective safety fencing • Rear suspension adjustment system • Contactless measurement device • Auto-torque for adjustment • Device to simulate actual vehicle weight during adjustment
