Chassis

The chassis system of the TH7 DX 460 Tractor is designed and manufactured according to MAN TGA standards and technology. It is made from carbon steel with very high resistance to bending and torsion. The chassis is optimized using advanced CAE calculation tools, features a double-layer structure, and is reinforced precisely at high-load areas.

As a result, the chassis provides high durability, stable operation, excellent overload capability, while still maintaining a relatively low curb weight.

The V-shaped axle stabilizer bar, widely used in the Vietnamese market, helps improve chassis stability, reduce vibration differences between both sides of the chassis, enhance load capacity, evenly distribute stress across the axle and chassis, and increase overall durability and lifespan.
