Technological advances are constantly changing the way we drive a car. Comfort, safety, efficiency, and digitalization make the driving experience increasingly rewarding. In this context, one of the most recent and exciting innovations in the automotive industry is the Steer-by-Wire<\/strong> technology.<\/p>\n

Essentially, this system represents a fundamental change in how we interact with a vehicle\u2019s steering. Electronics take centre stage. As a leader in the manufacturing of technological components, Teknia<\/strong> has taken on a project to produce a key product for Steer-by-Wire steering systems: the servohousing<\/strong>. Join us as we take a closer look at these latest advancements.<\/p>\n

Steer-by-Wire Steering Systems<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Steer-by-wire is a steering system in which the steering wheel and the wheels are not mechanically connected; instead, commands are transmitted electronically through sensors and actuators. A series of sensors, actuators, and various electronic systems control the movement of the wheels. As a result, several components are eliminated, and multiple benefits are achieved.<\/p>\n

In this type of steering, when the driver turns the wheel, sensors detect the command and send an electric signal to the actuators, which then move the wheels. These actuators are electromechanical devices. Depending on the vehicle, an electronic control unit can adapt the steering response to different factors for example, driving conditions.<\/p>\n

When driving at low speed, the steering ratio changes to enhance maneuverability. As speed increases, it readjusts to provide greater firmness and stability. In this situation, the level of electric assistance may vary depending on the circumstances. However, it is important to note that the steering speed and the number of turns from lock to lock remain constant.<\/p>\n
