Test rigs for axles & couplings

01High flexibility
02Numerous extension packages
03Easily adaptable

Our technologies for your demands

Particularly stressed components of the driveline should already be tested as individual components. In any case, this also includes axles and couplings.

In principle, the same components are available for testing axles and couplings as for powertrain testing:

Basic system:

RDDS automation system
Different power units as per customer requirements, consisting of the AC motor, matching gearbox, speed/torque measurement and mounting frame (motor/generator)
Control cabinet
Power and signal cabling

Optional:

Lift and swivel mounting frame for power units
Mounting frame for test pieces
Couplings, adapters
Additional load application units
Test-piece conditioning
Special measurement technology
Test-piece measuring box
Feed and regenerative transformer
Sound insulation (power units/overall system)
Floor plate, vibration-isolated foundation
Parallel test operation of two test setups
Integration of MATLAB/Simulinkmodels

When testing individual components, it should always be considered to test two or even more test items at the same time in order to reduce test bench times.

01 High flexibility

High flexibility with standard modules

The product family of RENK test rigs for drivetrain components provides a range of drive systems that allow a vast range of test rig configurations to be implemented quickly and cost-effectively.

The compact power units can be combined in any number of ways to suit the respective testing tasks. To extend the testing possibilities, an existing test system can also be expanded at a later date by adding additional power units.

02 Numerous extension packages

Numerous extension packages for all testing requrements

RTS offers numerous expansion packages for drive technology, specimen support, measurement technology or building infrastructure for the powertrain test benches. Tailored precisely to the test task and can also be retrofitted at a later date if requirements change.

03 Easily adaptable

Easily adaptable in case of necessary changes of the test program or test item

Due to a wide variety of powertrain types, powertrain test stands must also be highly flexible. The adaptation of new test items or the modification of test programs can be carried out by the operators of our test stands themselves. For further adaptations, our experienced service team is at your disposal.
