2 Wheel Station SPMM

The standard version of the Suspension Parameter Measuring Machine (SPMM 5000) is designed to measure the quasi-static suspension characteristics that are important to a vehicles ride and handling. The machine applies forces slowly, so as not to excite any dynamic forces emanating from inertias, dampers or elastomers. The SPMM is a moving body, fixed ground plane Kinematics and Compliance test machine with electromechanical actuators. It is designed to subject a vehicle to a variety of forces and displacements and measure the kinematic characteristics due to the suspension and steering system geometries, and compliances due to the suspension springs, anti-roll bars, elastomeric bushes and component deformations.
