The steering control unit makes steering motor output corresponding moment and
speed according to signal transmitted by steering sensor. Then the moment and speed are
transmitted to steer wheel through deceleration gear mechanism to make the steer wheel
rotate with a certain angle.
The steering axle of the truck is made up of steering control unit, steering motor,
deceleration gear mechanism, steering wheel axle, steer wheel and so on.
See table 3-1 for tyre and rim model of steering axle.
