The method involves using sensors (1,2) to measure the pressure in pneumatic spring bellows (4,5), the spring deflection or the wheel loads on both sides of at least one axle. A transverse acceleration sensor (3) or wheel rpm sensors (10,11) measure the tr...

The method involves determining an actual braking value representing the effective braking of the vehicle and a threshold braking value assigned to the driver's braking requirement. The braking force is automatically matched at at least one axle (HA,VA), i...

On receiving a braking alert from the separation controller (22), the braking system (23,26-40) adopts a state of readiness for action.
