Functionality electric power steering
Electric power steering (EPS) is gaining popularity over hydraulic steering thanks to many advantages. The system does not require a hydraulic system, completely eliminating the need for a hydraulic pump and hydraulic fluid. Depending on the design, EPS systems can save up to 90% energy compared to hydraulic systems.
This results in a significant reduction in the vehicle's fuel consumption. In addition, electric power steering offers the advantage that, unlike hydraulic power steering, no leaks can occur. In addition, the system is maintenance-free and can be monitored electronically.
