GIANT 6000 Series

Overview

One of the key benefits of the GIANT 6000 series performance test machine is the assurance of long-term integrity and error-free operation of your brake system. The system can equally well be used for final adjustment checks as for quality control. The brake performance test system GIANT 6000 series is a dynamometer capable of testing the tread brake shoe, brake disk and pads and brake equipment under various conditions.

Applications

Inertia brake rigs are normally used for the dynamic testing of complete vehicle brakes.
The brakes can be exposed to either stop brakings, drag brakings or endurance brakings according to international regulations, e.g. AK-Master JASO 436 FMVSS-105 UIC-541.3, with loads and velocities similar to road operation of a complete vehicle.
The dynamometer serves for testing hydraulically actuated drum and disc brakes for cars and vans.
With some additional options the GIANT 6000 series can be upgraded to run basic NVH tests.
