Apply real-world loading in up to 24 channels to confirm the durability characteristics of rolling stock bogie frames. Deployed worldwide in numerous configurations, these systems employ versatile FlexTest controls and renowned RPC software to correlate bogie frame FEA models, optimize structures, verify complex weldments and comply with government standard testing.
Engineered to manage the very large, dynamic forces and complex loading scenarios that are typical to rail testing
Employs FlexTest controls and RPC software to command and analyze specimen forces with maximum accuracy at six times the speed of conventional controllers
Highly modular portal frame and multi degree-of-freedom (DOF) actuator system can apply loads to bogie frames in a wide range of configurations, force amplitudes and frequencies
MTS has provided standard and custom testing solutions for rail car components, sub-assemblies and full-scale structure for more than five decades
Satisfies the majority of government testing standards:
