Automotive Instrumentation and Data Acquisition

TRAX technicians install and operate test instrumentation that measures shock and vibration, temperature, engine performance, and other test parameters. Testing is performed on eight special test courses over natural desert terrain, prepared test slopes and obstacles, a 2-mile paved dynamometer course, a water spray simulator, vehicle swimming basins, and a mud basin. TRAX engineers download, reduce and analyze these data as specified by our customers and as required to provide accurate and meaningful test results.

 

Environmental Chamber/Special Equipment Operations and Support

TRAX engineers and technicians operate and maintain environmental chambers (e.g., high and low temperatures, humidity, altitude, and salt fog), heavy duty platform scales and mobile absorption dynamometers to provide test support before, during and after test operations.
