Test professionals are looking for ways to bring new designs to market faster, meeting today’s challenges while preparing tomorrow’s. Moog expertise, combined with the world-class performance of their products such as fatigue-rated Actuators, Servovalves and Test Controllers make them a leader in providing both simple and complex structural and performance test solutions.

Structural Testing involves quantitative tests of endurance, fatigue, and structural capabilities of components or modules.

• Suspension test rig

• 4-poster test rig

• 7-8 Poster Test System

Performance Testing involves the assessment of ride and handling behaviors that will optimize the quality and performance of a module or a full vehicle. This type of test involves extremely fast and precise measurements and can include a human-in-the Performance testing -loop.

• Ride and Comfort testing

• Driving simulator testing

• Kinematics & Compliance

Hardware and human in the loop testing has been employed for many years in the aerospace world to reduce research and development time. In doing so, new prototype components have been developed and validated on test system in real world conditions with a human in the loop to get actual pilot
response and perception. In the automotive world, this method of testing is not often used but definitely needed. Applying the concepts of including the driver in the loop with hardware based testing and development would reduce the number of prototype vehicles required and the number of hours spent on race track or proving ground testing. Testing in the lab with the driver included ensures more consistent test conditions creating a more controlled test and improved results; unlike track testing where conditions continually change.
