S48 Wheel
Product descripton: S48 Wheel by AZAK
S48 is a large-format in-wheel drive system developed by AZAK for heavy-load applications, enabling the creation of powerful unmanned ground platforms without traditional drivetrain complexity. It is designed to support high-capacity transport and industrial or military logistics missions.
Payload & Capability
The platform is optimized for extremely heavy payloads, offering lifting and transport capacity comparable to conventional heavy equipment while significantly reducing space and weight requirements. It enables compact alternatives to traditional systems such as forklifts.
Design & Efficiency
By integrating motor, battery, and control systems inside the wheel, S48 reduces system footprint and simplifies vehicle architecture. This allows more efficient transport, deployment, and scalability across different platforms.
Mobility & Durability
The system is built for operation in harsh environments, with a wide temperature tolerance and active cooling system to maintain performance under load.
Control & Integration
S48 operates via CAN-based control architecture, supporting integration into advanced vehicle systems and autonomous platforms.
Operational Use Cases
- Heavy logistics and cargo handling
- Industrial transport systems
- Military supply and support platforms
- Compact alternatives to heavy lifting equipment
