Model 5662 CV Hub Bearing Test Machine

Overview

The LINK Model 5662 Commercial Vehicle Hub and Bearing Test Machine is designed to reproduce the forces acting on Commercial Vehicle hub and wheel bearing assemblies by controlling the magnitude of the cornering forces and radial forces.

 

Key Features

  • The axial and radial load apply systems utilize hydraulic cylinders.
  • The control system maintains a constant force or a dynamic force profile on each load apply system while rotating the test part at the desired test speed.
  • The test is completed when either the test part fails or the required number of rotations is reached.

Applications

    A wheel simulator fixture is utilized for hub attachment. An ambient cooling fan is used for cooling test parts.
    Hydraulic servo control technology reproduces real life loading conditions precisely and accurately on the hub/wheel bearing assembly.
