Michigan Scientific offers important instrumentation used in vehicle dynamics. From standard transducers and signal transmission equipment to custom solutions, MSC has measuring devices for almost any force, strain, or torque testing. Backed by decades of reliable design and manufacturing, MSC instrumentation is robust enough to withstand the rigorous testing that is required.
Overview
Michigan Scientific engineers have experience in determining what data will be useful and can help guide customers in understanding what they need and why they need it. When you bring a force measurement application to MSC, our engineers will review your application with you to determine whether a standard Multi-Axis Load Cell can be used. If a standard load cell solution is possible, MSC will recommend which load cell model and mounting concepts will meet your project requirements. In addition to the load cell, MSC can quote the entire system design and provide all necessary mounting adapters. Our engineers also have expertise in gauging a wide variety of stock components. We develop and fabricate vehicle component strain gauge transducers that measure vehicle suspension forces, powertrain torques, steering component forces, engine and motor loads, and braking torques on vehicles in the field or in the lab.
Insights from key component areas are achievable using MSC’s specialized transducers for automotive applications. These precision transducers have been engineered as turnkey solutions for their respective testing applications. These transducers make for easy testing setup and provide industry-leading measurements in a variety of use cases.
MSC Wheel Force Transducers can measure longitudinal force, lateral force, vertical force, camber moment, wheel torque, and steer torque independently and can determine wheel position and speed as well. The transducers not only measure and record all forces and loads acted on a wheel, but they also help determine how well equipment operates under extreme weather and road conditions. They can be used to explore applications on tires, aerodynamics, brakes, suspension, comfort, vehicle dynamics modeling, powertrain, benchmark, and more.
