Instead of relying solely on mechanical spring force, it uses the compressible nature of air to regulate the vehicle\u2019s ride height and precisely compensate for body movements. Depending on the system type, the spectrum ranges from helpful supplementary solutions that support the standard suspension to full-fledged, high-end air suspension systems that take over the entire suspension function and create an incomparably smooth ride. Goldschmitt offers both variants\u2014each tailored to the specific vehicle model and designed to sustainably improve ride comfort, stability, and payload capacity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top has-gray-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional air suspension systems for the rear axle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/en\/products\/suspension-technology\/air-suspension-overview\/auxiliary-air-suspension-systems\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/zusatzluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3114\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/zusatzluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/zusatzluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/zusatzluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/zusatzluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">Supplementary air suspension systems are typically installed on the rear axle to complement the existing steel suspension, allowing the standard springs to remain in place while providing gentle support. Using the integrated control system with a standard high-performance compressor, the air pressure in the air springs can be adjusted either manually or automatically\u2014via the advanced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/en\/products\/suspension-technology\/air-suspension-overview\/additional-air-springs\/rideheightcontrol\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"9545\">RHC\u00ae control system<\/a>\u2014to accommodate the load and weight on the rear axle. This allows the rear of the vehicle to be raised precisely, optimizes vehicle balance, and ensures ideal suspension travel. The result: significantly smoother handling, especially with a heavy load, as well as noticeably greater comfort, stability, and precise suspension control in all driving situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-920e359d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/en\/products\/suspension-technology\/air-suspension-overview\/auxiliary-air-suspension-systems\/\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">About the Product<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top has-gray-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Full-air suspension systems for the front and rear axles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/en\/products\/suspension-technology\/air-suspension-overview\/full-air-suspension\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/vollluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3542\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/vollluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/vollluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/vollluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/vollluftfeder-ha-ratgeber-goldschmitt-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">Full-air suspension systems are considered a high-end suspension solution for motorhomes and ambulances. They are installed either on the rear axle or on both the front and rear axles and completely replace the standard suspension. The result is exceptionally smooth handling, optimized road holding, maximum stability, and noticeably greater comfort for the driver, passengers, and the interior. The innovative ADC\u00ae control system automatically adjusts the ride height to the current load and also offers numerous predefined functions, such as leveling while stationary, raising\/lowering, or a weighing function, to ensure the highest levels of comfort, safety, and ease of use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-920e359d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/en\/products\/suspension-technology\/air-suspension-overview\/full-air-suspension\/\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">About the Product<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:120px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover alignfull has-parallax\" style=\"min-height:600px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><div class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-3314 size-full has-parallax\" style=\"background-position:50% 50%;background-image:url(https:\/\/www.goldschmitt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/routecomfort-ha-2500-goldschmitt.jpg)\"><\/div><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-text-color-background-color has-background-dim-80 has-background-dim\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:clamp(50.171px, 3.136rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 4.838), 100px);font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">Route\u2009\u2009\u2009\u2009Comfort.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>GRP leaf spring meets auxiliary air suspension.
