In view of the common and difficult to solve vehicle vibration problem, taking a large truck manufacturing enterprise in China as an example, an improved model for solving truck vibration problem is established by using the G8D method, and the unbalanced excitation force of the wheel system is analysed. The coupling of the excitation frequency and the natural frequency of the system leads to the resonance phenomenon, as well as the inadequate damping function of the system, is the fundamental cause of the vibration problem. After verifying and implementing permanent correction measures at the same time at the three levels of components, devices, and the entire vehicle, the acceleration of the seat guide rails for the vibration performance of the truck reduces from the original state 1.04 m/s2 to 0.6 m/s2, a decrease of 42.3%, which reaches the best level of mainstream cars in the country and is close to the optimal level of 0.5 m/s2 among the same kinds of cars in Germany. Therefore, the improved model can improve the sustainability of product manufacturing, provide industry guidance for solving the quality problem of truck vibration, and provide a sustainable guarantee for social public transport safety.
