AUTODYN SERIES AUTODYN SERIES CHASSIS DYNAMOMETERS HAND HELD CONTROLLER EDDY CURRENT ABSORBERS VERSATILE Simple and accessible control To simulate real-world driving With upgradeable options and while testing conditions wheel base adjustment We Make It Better 1.262.252.4301 | www.powertestdyno.com | [email protected] | Sussex, WI, USA FEATURES THAT MATTER Push-Button Wheel Base Adjustment Push-button wheel base adjustment is not only convenient; it’s also the right way to accommodate AWD vehicles because it allows the vehicles to be loaded in the same position on the rolls every time. Non-adjustable cradle rolls systems that simply stack rolls together to accommodate AWD vehicles produce inconsistencies in testing as one vehicle might land between rolls and another may land on top of the rolls, creating a different testing environment for each vehicle. Trunnion Mounted Differentials Precision, trunnion mounted differentials allow individual torque measurement of each axle (AWD models) so you can see total torque through the RPM range and also the torque split between the front and rear axles to tune for drivability. They also allow accurate measurement of dyno losses so the inertia of the dyno does not affect the test results. Further, it means SuperFlow® dynos are not susceptible to inaccuracies based on heat in the dyno components like the differentials and couplings. 2 Eddy Current Absorption High capacity eddy current absorbers allow for both inertia and loaded testing. On all models, they’re coupled to each other and to the rolls with positive mechanical couplings like differentials and driveshafts. This allows accurate measurement of parasitic horsepower losses in each individual dyno we manufacture. WinDyn® is loaded with this data at the factory to compensate for the losses and provide accurate readings. Large Contact Patch Our large 30” and 42” diameter, single-roll dynamometers provide superior traction with minimum tire deflection. Vehicles can be secured to the dyno in a linear fashion without adding unneeded down- force (which won’t be there on the track). This reduces heat build-up during testing so tires are not put through damaging heat cycles. Comparative cradle roll systems cause tire deflection in two points at each tire producing more heat in the tires, and less accurate measurement by the dyno. 3 AUTODYN 880E AWD There is a reason that the AutoDyn™ 880E AWD rollers to spin at different speeds, causing is used all over the world by some of the most driveline windup and damaging driveline respected names in automotive performance. components. Differentials and driveshafts That reason is simple: SuperFlow® has allow SuperFlow® to accurately measure and perfected the art of accurate road simulation compensate for the parasitic losses of every via a simple and reliable mechanical linkage. dyno produced so that each one leaves the SuperFlow’s® Road Simulation Technology factory calibrated with its own inertia and (RST) utilizes heavy-duty differentials and parasitic data. The end result is the most a steel drive shaft to synchronize the front accurate torque and power measurement and rear roll speeds along with eddy-current available. Further, torque is measured using brakes to accurately load vehicles according two temperature-compensated load cells, one to their inertia, aerodynamic losses and rolling at each roll set, so you’re not only able to see losses. SuperFlow® RST prevents damage total torque across the rpm range, but also the to the differentials and viscous couplings of torque split between the front and rear axles. AWD vehicles and removes the chance of The AutoDyn™ 880E AWD’s large 42” knurled activating a vehicles traction control system rolls provide superior traction and minimal tire or ABS while accurately loading each vehicle deflection so testing is as close to real world as if it were traveling down the road or track. conditions as possible. Cradle roll systems SuperFlow® RST is much simpler and more deflect the tire in two locations which builds accurate than complicated belt systems that more heat in the tire and results in less stretch and break or inconsistent electronically accurate hp measurement than large single synced systems that allow the front and rear roll dynos like the AutoDyn™ 880E AWD.
