Application
GIANT 9000 Series
Overview
The major test target is to detect noise and vibrations generated by the vehicles brake. Our intention was to build a dynamometer that can operate either with brakes mounted to the complete vehicle, or with just the axle module mounted to a universal adaptor system or wheel suspensions.
By means of this dynamometer, the brakes can be exposed to either stop brakings or endurance brakings according to standardized NVH test matrix.
Features
Standard Features
- Machine base frame with vibration insulation
- 48" roller set with special bearings and emergency brake
- Dynamometer cover and noise encapsulation
- Fixing system for passenger car & van
- AC-drive motor and AC/DC power converter
- Control system for hydraulic braking pressure or braking torque
- Control system for electrical inertia simulation
- Control system for electrical vehicle physics simulation
- Basic measuring system for pressure / torque / speed / temperature
- Logical dynamometer control with Siemens PLC
- Computer system for automated testing
- Safety devices
Advantages
- Exact road simulation
- Highly accurate test speed and tractive force measurement
- Quick control of tractive force
- Protection of tires due to large roller diameter
- Excellent reproducibility of test results
- Tests according to worldwide known standards

Applications
- Technical examinations of noise and vibration on brakes, installed in complete passenger cars and light commercial vehicles
- Realistic processing of NVH problems in the brakes in connection with the completed vehicle
- Examination of noise and judder
- Examination of creep and groan in vehicles with automatic transmission
- Testing of damping measures such as noise shims or coating of the friction linings
- Testing of complete brake units for passenger cars
- Testing of drum and disk brakes of any type and size
