Test equipment
The test equipment allows products to be tested under real and simulated conditions.
In many industries, ensuring the quality, safety and efficiency of parts or products resulting from a production line is essential. These guarantees can be obtained by subjecting products or parts to tests or simulations carried out on test equipment. Based on the behavior of the products observed in these test rigs when subjected to real or simulated conditions, their validity is determined or the necessary adjustments are made.
At DEIMA we know how important it is to have test equipment that can detect errors or defects before the product goes to market. One of the areas where the demand for such test equipment is highest is the automotive industry, which is responsible for testing complete systems and vehicles to verify their performance.
How does the test equipment work?
Test equipment is used to test certain parts, systems, components or products to determine whether they will perform optimally in certain situations.
Thanks to test equipment, we can create or simulate situations that are practically identical to reality, so that we can determine whether the product, system or part we are manufacturing works as we expect it to work. If it does not, we can redefine those malfunctions without dire consequences.
Test equipment in the automotive industry
At DEIMA we design and manufacture test equipment for the automotive industry of different nature. The best known are the engine test benches, which are used to evaluate the performance, efficiency and emissions of internal combustion or electric engines.
These test benches evaluate power, torque, fuel consumption, exhaust emissions and energy efficiency. They can operate on both combustion and electric engines.
Another type of test equipment we manufacture are transmission test benches, which are used to verify the functionality and durability of transmission systems such as automatic or manual gearboxes, clutches, differentials and traction systems. Friction resistance, mechanical losses, gear shifting and vibration tests are used to determine whether the components are optimal.
Our engineers have also designed test equipment to study vehicle aerodynamics and reduce wind resistance, the so-called wind tunnels. Finally, one of the most relevant test equipment in the automotive sector is braking. Evaluating the efficiency of braking systems under various conditions and circumstances is vital for any vehicle.
Interested in fully customized test equipment?
Each of the test rigs we design and manufacture at DEIMA is totally unique. Each product, each system and each vehicle has unique characteristics and requires testing of certain unique aspects, so the test equipment responsible for it must also be unique and must be precisely tailored to your specific needs.
