Why is the control arm so important in car suspension systems? Because the wheels and body are connected by control arms and play a supporting and wheel alignment role, they play a crucial role in connecting and transmitting the suspension force of the wheels, allowing them to move vertically and providing a stable suspension geometry.
During the driving process, the control arms can absorb and reduce the impact and vibration of road bumps on passengers through their synergistic effect with other components (such as shock absorbers), thereby achieving a more comfortable riding experience.
In addition, as mentioned above, the normal function of the control arm is to correct the tire and align the wheels. If there is a problem with the control arm, not only will it cause the wheels to lose alignment, but it will also accelerate uneven wear of the tire, reduce the service life of the tire, and may affect the handling and safety of the car
The design and geometric shape of the control arm have a direct impact on the suspension motion of the vehicle. They affect the vehicle's handling, stability, and suspension system response performance by controlling the trajectory and angle of the wheels.
