DAMPER TESTING

Our electrical systems for damper testing are designed to outperform hydraulic systems, effectively meeting the demand for high performance, ease of installation and low power consumption. We offer the widest range of suspension and shock absorber test rigs on the market, with peak dynamic loads up to 80 kN and continuous dynamic loads up to 40 kN.

The widest range of loads on the market
Test Center software platform with dedicated modules for shock absorber testing
Outstanding dynamic performance
Almost zero maintenance costs
Low energy consumption, thanks to efficient electrical systems
Management of multiple machines in a synchronised manner, realising a 4-poster system
Can be installed on any type of structure and support, from single to up to 8 controlled and synchronised axes
Simple and flexible test management via a graphical Test Center interface
Ideal for use in clean rooms
Capable of testing active dampers in any drive mode (stepper motors, DC motors and solenoids)
Wide range of signals and sensors that can be acquired
