Xtreme-Steer™ - Wide angle steering for maximum comfort

What if steering wasn’t just smoother, but smarter?

Xtreme-Steer™ combines wide-angle and flow-amplifying technology in articulated vehicles for smoother, precise control.

By integrating wide-angle and progressive flow-amplifying technology into the Xtreme-Steer product family, Danfoss provides a smoother and more precise steering experience, resulting in enhanced overall performance and operator comfort.

Boost productivity in harsh surroundings

Exceptional solution featuring integrated wide angle and progressive flow-amplifying technology in steering units.

The wide-angle feature dramatically minimizes jerky movements in vehicles with articulated steering systems, ensuring smoother overall performance. The progressive flow-amplifying technology delivers exceptional steering performance in both slow and fast modes, maintaining optimal control, precision, and operator comfort.

Xtreme-Steer hydraulic steering units can also be used in combination with electrohydraulic steering valves for advanced experience.

Quick Links

Backed by muscles and motion data, built by facts.

Aalborg University conducted a controlled study measuring muscles effort, steering time, and precision across different input methods.

Backed by science

Aalborg University’s controlled study revealed that using Flex-Steer™ electric steering input devices reduces muscles effort by 65% compared to traditional steering wheels. By minimizing physical strain, operators experience improved comfort and reduced fatigue during repeated and long tasks.

Steering certified ISO25119

The same study measured steering performance across different input methods and found a 6% increase in steering task efficiency with Danfoss electric steering input devices. The result: smoother operations and measurable productivity gains in demanding applications.
