We design and build dynamometers and test rigs to industry standards or special requirements.  
RPTM dynamometers can include a variety of features . 

• Brakes-off DTV highway simulation 
• Caliper drag
• Fluid displacement

Dynamometer - Caliper Endurance (High torque, low speed)

Destructive testing

• Torque Durability (Constant rotation)
• Pressure pulse
• Anchor bracket strength
• Crack detection technology

Non-destructive testing

• Anchor bracket deflection
• Housing deflection
• Correlation with customer FEA modelling

Dynamometer - Performance (High torque, high speed)

• Burnishing & friction material performance
• Driving cycle lining and rotor wear
• Rotor quench testing
• Brake thermal effectiveness & hysteresis

Test Rig - Caliper Benchmarking 

• Pad & housing sliding friction
• Guide pin boot pneumatic loads
• Effects of lubrication
• Piston retraction
• Piston slide load
• Piston knockback
• Fluid displacement

RPTM can also design and build custom test equipment for a variety of applications. Please contact us with your application and requirements.
