China Truck Network reporter learned that the Ka'am not only reduced the weight, but also simplified the installation, reduced the total length of the installation by more than 40%, in the form and structure just to meet the needs of the user's convenience and flexibility. The Cama has a compact shape and small size, and its mass is only 70 kg. With parallel design, different transmissions of different models can be matched, without affecting the length of the transmission shaft, and without interference with surrounding components. In addition, because the structure of this retarder is very simple, only the output shaft flange, drive teeth, cooling water pipes and sensors need to be connected, which not only facilitates assembly but also facilitates maintenance. The simple operation interface and good proximity make this product's maintenance and repair difficult to reduce. Normally, an ordinary maintenance worker can complete the maintenance work without much equipment. In addition, the maintenance of this product only needs to replace about 5 L of turbine oil at 60,000 km. The product design life is 15 years. The basic hardware does not need to be replaced, so that the user's use cost will not increase significantly. More importantly, after understanding the use environment of China's heavy trucks, Voith made a targeted improvement on some of the technical parameters of this product and improved the backup factor so that it could withstand greater work intensity.

The economic benefits that Voith Hydraulic Retarder can bring to users include: canceling the brake water tank, prolonging the service life of the main brake, prolonging the service life of the tire, reducing the loss of suspended classes, and increasing the operating speed to speed up the turnover rate. . According to relevant customer test data, the annual economic return of a long-distance truck due to the use of Voith's hydraulic retarder is about 30,000, while the annual revenue of a mountainous region's short-haul truck is as much as 50,000. It can be seen that using the Voith hydraulic retarder can basically recover the investment within one year. This does not include the most important benefit, which is the continuous and safe operation.
