TRW

TRW Automotive, now part of ZF Friedrichshafen AG, was a leading global supplier of automotive systems and components, including steering systems. TRW was recognized for its advanced steering technologies and solutions designed to enhance vehicle safety, performance, and handling.

Key features of TRW Steering:

1. Electric Power Steering (EPS): TRW was a pioneer in Electric Power Steering, which improves fuel efficiency, responsiveness, and ease of steering. EPS eliminates the need for a hydraulic system, making it a more energy-efficient and adaptable solution.

2. Safety Systems: TRW Steering contributed to vehicle safety through advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). These systems included features like lane-keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, and collision avoidance, all integrated into the steering system for optimal performance.

3. Precision and Responsiveness: TRW Steering systems were designed to provide precise control and responsiveness, enhancing the driving experience. Whether through traditional hydraulic power steering or modern electric power steering, TRW aimed to deliver a smooth and controlled steering feel.

4. Integration with Vehicle Dynamics: TRW Steering systems were often integrated with other vehicle dynamics systems to optimize overall vehicle performance. This integration helps in achieving better stability, control, and safety.

5. Innovation in Automated Driving: As the automotive industry moved toward autonomous driving, TRW (now part of ZF) continued to contribute to the development of steering systems that complemented automated driving technologies, ensuring safety and reliability.
