SHERPA roller brake testers in New Zealand
We are particularly pleased to announce a collaboration today that spans to the other side of the world. Levanta, based in Hemmant, Australia, is our trusted regional partner, combining innovation and design with efficient vehicle maintenance, serving various industries in Australia and New Zealand, including heavy-duty workshops (trucks, buses), the mining industry, and the agricultural sector, where safety is essential in every aspect of workshop requirements. For over two decades, Levanta has been supplying customized workshop systems – from concept to completion – and is therefore New Zealand’s only turnkey fitout provider.
In New Zealand, all heavy vehicle brake tests must be carried out with load. Why? Because load-simulated brake tests deliver results that reflect real-world conditions – where safety and compliance matter most.
This requires brake testers specifically tailored to New Zealand regulations, ensuring accurate, reliable, and compliant brake performance testing for the vehicle fleet. We are particularly proud that Levanta relies on SHERPA testing technology – in this case, the BPS Twin-XT-18115 truck roller brake tester!
“As a market leader, Levanta specializes in supplying quality products and a well-established network of manufacturers,” the company states. “We provide our customers with comprehensive advice and assemble optimal, state-of-the-art workshop equipment according to their precise specifications – from conception and planning to procurement, equipment supply, and ongoing service and maintenance. Every product in our range is selected for its durability, reliability, and user-friendliness. With the SHERPA system, the customer receives a future-proof, reliable test bench integrated in the workshop pit for safe and efficient workflows and guideline-compliant brake testing.”
We congratulate Levanta on their full-service offering for workshops and look forward to more joint installations!
