A custom, state-of-the-art hub test stand developed by Wineman Technology was recently featured in Automotive Testing Technology International, and  OEM Off-Highway publications. We worked with GKN Wheels & Structures – a global company that provides products and services for agriculture, construction, mining, and other off-highway industries – to increase their hub and spindle fatigue testing capabilities. The goals of the new hub test equipment were to eliminate expensive field testing, develop lighter hub castings, and speed time-to-market.

If fuel measurement and conditioning is important to your testing requirements, then it is critical that your system is designed with these requirements in mind. Often, systems are built around a particular technology or philosophy that can be limiting or restrictive. When in reality the best systems are designed around the application, with the goal of having the best possible data. Whether you are specializing in engine or component development, and whether you need testing with standard diesel or environmentally friendly bio-fuels or exotic blends, getting the most accurate data is the goal.

Wineman Technology made an $80,000 software donation to the hybrid electric vehicle engineering program at Michigan Technological University (Michigan Tech), a public research university in Houghton, Michigan. The donation consists of licenses for Dynacar, INERTIA™, and software support.
