Force and moment tester for tire analysis.


Force and moment testers from the company are said to meet all requirements for tire characteristics, such as dynamic altering of the slip angle, camber angle Camber angle is the angle made by the wheel of an automobile; specifically, it is the angle between the vertical axis of the wheel and the vertical axis of the vehicle when viewed from the front or rear. It is used in the design of steering and suspension.  adjustment and hub drive. All moments and forces are measured, making this equipment suitable for testing tires, as well as for use in their development. A five-component measuring hub records all moments and forces in detail. The industrial PC in the control cabinet stores the data. This sophisticated measuring system is said to be ideal for the development of high-performance Adj. 1. high-performance - modified to give superior performance; "a high-performance car"

 the company. Today, the development period for new vehicles is said to be less than two years. The number of sports cars and cross-country vehicles with four-wheel drive is growing, and these require tires with superior on-road performance, as well as off-road properties, according to the company.

Lightweight trucks and transport vans are being driven at higher speeds, adding to tire requirements.
