Noble CE, which was referred to as Terex Mexico was also purchased this year. They produce high capacity surface mining vehicles and also manufacture several items for other Terex companies.
The classification of an axle is a central shaft meant for revolving a gear or a wheel. Where wheeled motor vehicles are concerned, the axle itself may be fixed to the wheels and turn along with them. In this particular instance, bushings or bearings are provided at the mounting points where the axle is supported. On the other hand, the axle could be attached to its surroundings and the wheels may in turn rotate all-around the axle. In this instance, a bushing or bearing is located within the hole inside the wheel to allow the gear or wheel to rotate around the axle.
With cars and trucks, the word axle in some references is used casually. The term normally refers to the shaft itself, a transverse pair of wheels or its housing. The shaft itself rotates with the wheel. It is usually bolted in fixed relation to it and known as an 'axle' or an 'axle shaft'. It is also true that the housing surrounding it which is normally referred to as a casting is also known as an 'axle' or sometimes an 'axle housing.' An even broader definition of the word means every transverse pair of wheels, whether they are attached to one another or they are not. Therefore, even transverse pairs of wheels within an independent suspension are generally referred to as 'an axle.'
In a wheeled vehicle, axles are an important part. With a live-axle suspension system, the axles function to be able to transmit driving torque to the wheel. The axles also maintain the position of the wheels relative to one another and to the motor vehicle body. In this system the axles must also be able to bear the weight of the vehicle together with whichever load. In a non-driving axle, like for example the front beam axle in some two-wheel drive light trucks and vans and in heavy-duty trucks, there will be no shaft. The axle in this particular condition serves just as a steering component and as suspension. A lot of front wheel drive cars have a solid rear beam axle.
There are other kinds of suspension systems where the axles serve just to transmit driving torque to the wheels. The angle and position of the wheel hubs is a function of the suspension system. This is usually seen in the independent suspension found in nearly all new SUV's, on the front of various light trucks and on nearly all brand new cars. These systems still consist of a differential but it does not have connected axle housing tubes. It could be attached to the motor vehicle body or frame or even can be integral in a transaxle.
