Test Dynamometer for heavy duty vehicle

Development of rotating components require intensive testing. While the main goal may be reaching durability and life targets,noise , vibration, temperature and other parameters may play an important role for the customer expectations. Therefore, Novosim offers a customizable testing dynamometer which may be used to in the product development of passenger, commercial, heavy duty or even military vehicle components. Software is easy to use and also highly customizable allowing different product lines to be tested under a single system. With the help of regenerative braking, electricity is recovered and loops back to the test system providing efficient operation. Assuming the tests may run about 1 month, the consumption can be an important parameter for cost control. Different types of data can be collected and stored in a database for further comparisons and tracking of the development process. System automatically generates a report which is also customizable.

End-of-Line (EoL) testing devices play a crucial role in assessing product quality post-production. They are instrumental in detecting any visual, auditory, or operational issues that may arise during component installation and assembly, ensuring that only flawless products reach customers. Novosim's end-of-line testing systems cater to a diverse range of applications, including rotary systems (such as transmissions and axles), automotive component testing, noise and vibration level measurements, and specialized testing requirements. These sophisticated EoL testing systems are designed to operate automatically, leveraging a comprehensive array of sensors, data acquisition devices, and testing equipment. They enable the creation of customized test procedures, which are stored in a centralized database for easy access. These procedures can be tailored to different test conditions, accommodating variations in speed, duration, and other parameters.

This system is very valuable for testing the durability and expected life of the transmissions, axles, gears, transfer cases and shafts under various scenarios. It is hard to do vehicle level durability tests and without the need of getting the vehicle on the road for replicating claims caused by the powertrain, such type of a custom system help replicate the driving conditions where problems occur and the engineering team can develop a solution and iterate on the bench. Easy to use user interface; simplicity in get the system running in a target time is our most important goal. Operators in a test center can quickly receive training and begin running a variety of scenarios. Data from low speed channels such as sensors including thermocouples, RTD temperature sensors, pressure sensors and others can be collected whereas data from fast channels such as acceleration or microphone are collected through data collection (DAQ) systems, depending on the customer's preference.

End-of-Line (EoL) testing devices are used to test the quality of the product after the production process. The purpose of the testing system is to check any visual, audio or other problems that may arise during the installation and assembly of components before they are delivered to customers. Application examples of end-of-line testing systems developed by Novosim include: ​ Rotary systems (transmissions, axles, etc.) Automotive Component Testing Noise and vibration level measurements special systems ​ EoL testing systems are complex systems that generally operate automatically and include a range of sensors, data acquisition devices and testing equipment. Test procedures can be prepared in the form of predefined scenarios by the development team and stored in a database. Different scenarios can be prepared for different test conditions (high speed, low speed, long term, short term, etc.) and then called from the database.
