The shift to steer-by-wire systems - Interview with ZF

Q&A with ZF

Steer-by-wire (SbW) systems are a modern approach in automotive steering technology that replace traditional mechanical connections with electronic controls. This system utilizes sensors and actuators to manage steering inputs, allowing for precise control without the need for physical linkages. SbW systems offer several advantages, including the ability to adjust the steering ratio based on driving conditions, which can enhance maneuverability in urban settings and stability at higher speeds.
