Continuous development for intelligent designs

ATE supplies boosters in single or tandem versions and in all desired sizes. 

The following models are available: T 52, T52/3, T 53

• The operation of these units is practically the same. However, depending on the model, a higher output which produces a higher outgoing force is available.
• Most units are made of steel, but lightweight aluminum versions are also available.

The tie rod version, which is available for all designs, provides further weight reduction and additional optimized elongation characteristics. »Front-bolt« concepts on tie-rod basis facilitate installation.

Electric and mechanical brake assist systems, sensors for OHB, ACC, ESC, etc., as well as measures designed to optimize crash behavior complete the product portfolio.

H 31 hydraulic booster

Hydraulic brake boosters make rational use of the existing energy supply system in a vehicle. The hydraulic pump for the power steering simultaneously supplies the hydraulic booster with the necessary oil pressure. The brake booster is about equal to a tandem master cylinder in size and weight. Compared with vacuum boosters, it has a substantially higher runout pressure and is not dependent on a supply of vacuum, so it can also be used on diesel engine vehicles or vehicles whose engines produce low vacuum levels.

If the steering pump fails, the hydraulic pressure reservoir contains an adequate pressure reserve to apply the brakes several times with full boost effect. Once this pressure reserve is exhausted, brake application without boost effect is still possible, but will require a considerable amount of pedal force.

Brake Assist (BA)

Brake assist systems are an important aid in emergency braking situations. When a driver needs to respond to an emergency situation, but does not apply the brakes with sufficient pressure, it can lead to dangerously long stopping distances. The brake assist recognizes the brake application speed to detect this type of panic situation and activates the brake booster or the EBS hydraulic unit.

So even with moderate pedal forces, maximum deceleration is achieved. We offer different technologies for this purpose:
