Spinning Applications (Test Track)
Hardware Overview
Spinning Applications (Test Track)
The SWIFT sensor can be used for road load data acquisition (RLDA)
applications:
• Durability
• Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH)
• Ride and Handling
• Tire Performance
The transducer is durable enough to withstand harsh road testing and data
acquisition environments. The transducer is splash resistant and suitable for use
in conditions where the test vehicle will encounter occasional standing or running
water, or will be exposed to precipitation. However, it should not be submerged.
In a typical spinning application, the transducer is mounted on a modified rim of
a tire on a test vehicle, as shown in the following figure. The Transducer
Interface (TI), power supply, and data recorder can be located inside the vehicle
or in the trunk..
