The simulator for radial impact is for testing the fatigue strength and failure behaviour of wheels and steering columns under load. This provides manufacturers valuable information about the properties of their products right at the development stage.
Our portfolio
- Radial impact test on car wheels with tyres
- Safeguarding the fatigue strength of rims from fracture (e.g. when driving through potholes)
- Preloading of wheels with impact loads for subsequent fatigue strength tests
- Impact loading on motorcycle forks
- Impact loading on axle guides
