Item	:	Shock Absorber Test Stand
MODEL	:	BS-SAT

 

This trainer is a modern up-to-date demonstration system  and test stand for suspension and shock absorbers featuring a computer for data acquisition of  test data and analysis of results.  The trainer explores the construction and performance of shock absorbers as well as the operation and characteristics of suspensions. 

The test stand unit features a standard automotive tire and independent suspension system which is interactively operable with variable road conditions.  The test stand consists of a rear axle with wheel, suspension, shock absorber and coil spring all of which are original genuine automotive parts. Conditions are simulated electrically by means of a drive roller and an oscillation generator.  The wheel (tire) is rotated by a heavy duty rotating drum which simulates the road surface.  The drum is able to be oscillated up and down with a variable speed control thereby simulating a variety of rough and smooth road surfaces.  The upper part of the trainer above the wheel simulates the car body (chassis) and the active effects of the suspension may be observed by the resulting motion of the body and interaction with different weight loads.
