MTS Systems Corporation, a world leader in
vehicle testing technology, is in the final stages
of development on a new family of permanent
magnet dynamometers. This technology, derivative
of the successful dynamometer technology first
deployed by Formula 1 teams, acts as a ''virtual
engine'', which simulates the firing signature at
high rpm and power levels, allowing manufacturers
to develop and optimize race drivelines. MTS
provides additional motorsport testing tools to help
teams improve their competitiveness in various
racing series, including rolling road systems for
wind tunnels; kinematics and compliance systems;
and seven-posters for suspension tuning. A CLEARER VIEW
Showtrax International will show off the innovative
four-layer tear-off windscreen which has finally
arrived in Europe; Showtrax is the major
distributor outside North America. The tear-off
windscreen is designed to protect both glass and
polycarbonate screens and enables a team to run
with the same windscreen for much of the season. SENSOR SPECIALIST
Over the past 12-18 months, Variohm has had
discussions with a number of teams regarding
their sensor requirements. What the company
heard time and again was: smaller and stronger.
This is a tough request, considering the
environment these sensors need to survive in,
but Variohm has succeeded. Its range of rotary
sensors has changed with the introduction of
Hall-effect and dual Hall-effect sensors to
complement the range of potentiometers. Variohm
believes that the new range of sensors ticks all
the boxes, offering a solution for all applications.
Benefits include: multiple housing options
(starting from 22mm diameter), IP67 sealing and
light weight.
