Live braking and stability demonstrations including iABS 1M versus iABS 2M, RSS on and off maneuvers, and iEBS clearly show how advanced system design improves control, safety, and measurable performance.
Join Us At ZF's Trailer Technology Demo Days
Transportation Research Center (TRC) | East Liberty, OH — July 27-28, 2026
Experience ZF Trailer Technologies On The Track
Why Attend ZF's 2026 Trailer Technology Demo Day?
This exclusive demo event is designed to clearly illustrate how increasing technology levels translate into real‑world performance gains, including enhanced control and stopping power in critical scenarios.
Our goal is to openly demonstrate the value of of our upgraded systems for OEMs and Fleets, reinforce our leadership in trailer safety, and highlight the future of intelligent trailer systems.
We look forward to welcoming you and sharing how these technologies are shaping the next generation of trailer performance.
