The Challenge:
From April 2025 there will be an expectation that a laden roller brake test or EBPMS will be the only accepted methods to assess brake performance.
Section 5.3a DVSA updated Guide to Maintaining Roadworthiness

The Solution:
SAF CONNECTED is a fully integrated solution that helps UK transport operators meet the new braking performance assessment requirements. It combines SAF INTRADISC axles, Haldex EB+ 4.0 braking systems, and AXSCEND’s advanced telematics into one streamlined combination. Operators get FREE ACCESS to the AXSCEND EBPMS as part of the package. And as if that wasn’t enough, we’re also including the AXSCEND Maintenance Planner free of charge as part of this high-value, exclusive offering.
