Model 3000 Performance Brake Dynamometer
Overview
The Model 3000 Dynamometer (Model 3000) is a full-sized system specifically designed to evaluate braking performance characteristics up to 5650 Nm for automotive and light truck brake assemblies. This state-of-the-art machine incorporates a 2-disc inertia section combined with electric motor Inertia Simulation (I-Sim) capability to replicate actual operating conditions.
The Model 3000 is the perfect machine for running research and development test protocols on brake calipers, friction material, drums and rotors in a controlled test environment that has been proven to correlate with vehicle test data. The ProLINK control and data acquisition system allows manual or fully automatic unattended operation.
