Lift axle is essentially provided in commercial vehicles to increase the vehicle’s load-carrying capacity. The axle is lowered in the case of a high payload and the load is evenly distributed among the wheels both on fixed axles and the lift axle. This ability to lift the axle implies better maneuverability in turns, better fuel consumption, and less wear and tear on the tires and brake shoes. Also, it will reduce the damage to the road surfaces. This lowering and lifting of the lift axle are controlled by a series of valves together called the Lift Axle Control System (LACS). This LACS must consider the vehicle load condition, the ignition state, and gear state to decide if the axle must be lifted or lowered. This paper deals with the modeling and simulation of the LACS system at the vehicle level and optimize the design for the respective desired design solution.
