EBSIntroductionThe growing competitive pressure in the transportation trade is the reason that the requirements on the brake system also increase steadily. The introduction of the electronically controlled braking system EBS is the logical step to meet this and other requirements.

Benefits of EBS - It enhances vehicle and road safely by means of reducing the stopping distance, achieving improved braking stability and monitoring the brake system.- It spares the brake pads and offers wheel brakes the possibility of a durably optimal coordination of the braking powers between the single one as well as between towing machine and trailer.- The full diagnosis and surveillance functions of the EBS as well as the display of brake lining wear offer an effective fleet logistics.- In addition, EBS considerably improves both economic efficiency and driving comfort.

Functions of EBS:ABS:Anti-lock braking system(ABS) is anautomobile safetysystem that allows thewheelson amotor vehicleto maintaintractivecontact with the road surface according to driver inputs whilebraking, preventing the wheels from locking up (ceasing rotation) and avoiding uncontrolled skidding.

EBA: Emergency brake assist(EBA) orBrake Assist(BA or BAS) is a generic term for anautomobilebraking technology that increases braking pressure in an emergency situation.EBA is designed to detect such "panic stops" and apply maximum braking effort within milliseconds. It interprets braking behaviour by assessing the rate that the brake pedal is activated.

Electronic stability controlElectronic stability control(ESC), also referred to aselectronic stability program(ESP) ordynamic stability control(DSC), is a computerized technology[1][2]that improves avehicle's stabilityby detecting and reducing loss of traction (skidding).When ESC detects loss of steering control, it automatically applies the brakes to help "steer" the vehicle where the driver intends to go. Braking is automatically applied to wheels individually.
