Brake Inertia Dynamometer



The Hofmann Brake Inertia Dynamometer is arranged ‘in-line’, with the main elements being flywheel assemblies, brake test area, DC or AC machine, and a disc brake.
Construction of the Brake Inertia Dynamometer 

- A system of flywheels is mounted onto a common central shaft to simulate the mass of the test vehicle
- The minimum inertia is formed by the inertia of the shafts, couplings, and disc brake
- Variable inertia is obtained by engaging the appropriate flywheels
- Precise inertia simulation is obtained by ‘trimming’ using the - DC or AC machine
- The flywheels are engaged manually with a unique support and transfer system or automatically, using electromagnetic clutches
- A headstock is provided to mount the brake drum or disc
- A tailstock is supplied to support the brake shoe or calliper assembly and to transmit the reaction torque to a high precision load cell
- Speed is measured by an optical encoder and via a tachogenerator

Transmission Testing



Powertrain testing is undergoing radical changes, driven by the challenges which global society faces today. The need for reduced dependence on fossil-fuels and improved carbon footprints is driving changes in the technologies used in all vehicles. This, in turn, has a direct impact on approaches to the testing of powertrain components and systems.
Our powertrain test facilities benefit from the combination of our expertise and experience in engine and chassis dynamometer design and control techniques. These, along with the advanced simulations developed for our own Robot Driver and vDriver systems, ensure we are able to provide the very best solutions for powertrain and transmission testing requirements.

Powertrain test applications available include various arrangements of transmission test stands through to full powertrain test systems, with multiple dynamometers and either an engine driven input or a further AC machine. Ultimate flexibility is provided with our hybrid powertrain test facilities, enabling individual testing of prime movers, a fully synchronised test with both power sources operational and many simulations in between.

The associated control systems include full road load and inertia simulation with accurate speed synchronisation of the powertrain outputs. Additionally, several advanced features are available including full journey replay and simulation, facility services, and HIL simulation packages to ensure rapid development of powertrain systems or components.
All systems can be provided to accommodate both 2 and 4 wheel drive solutions, as well as additional replacement of prime movers for transmission only testing.
Whether the requirement is for long term durability, NVH, emissions, or driveability testing, we have the solution.

vDriver Simulation Software



VDriver provides development engineers with a unique package that can reduce the product development cycle involved in vehicle, engine powertrain testing, by simulating the variability associated with particular driving styles and routes.

vDriver operates as a distance based sequencer, allowing users to reproduce specific routes and driving styles on their chassis, transient engine and powertrain dynamometers. users can either record routes, or select global pre-recorded routes provided within the package.The vDriverTM package incorporates real-traffic and road-hazard conditions into the test-cell, allowing the user to simulate realistic operational conditions into the development cycle both quickly and repeatedly. The routes include a record of the road type, speed limits, traffic lights and other road-based events.
In this way the engine, power-train or vehicle may be robustly tested to realistic and varying driving conditions whilst in a laboratory environment, providing a user with the following benefits:
- Dramatically reduces development timescales due to the efficiency of reproducing a variety of operational circumstances in a controlled environment
- Verifiy the robustness of the Engine calibrations under “Real - World” driving conditions – minimising expensive recalls from unexpected combinations of circumstances
- Evaluate appropriate Hybrid Powertrain strategies under realistic operational demands (e.g. urban environments)
- Conduct integrated engine – powertrain- chassis system development and HIL testing
- Reproduce specific favourite or defined routes from any location in any of your test facilities
- Replicate your customers’ preferred test route in your facility without the expense and logistics of vehicle testing on location

NVH Testing



Our range of extreme low noise N.V.H. Chassis Dynamometer systems have evolved and acquired techniques and capabilities previously only demanded in “high accuracy” emission test systems.
With continuous development of motor vehicles comes the demand for ever-improving product refinement. An increasingly significant area of this important work is passenger safety and comfort. The measurement and evaluation of vehicle noise, vibration, and harshness levels is subject to the variations in road and climatic conditions. By using a chassis dynamometer within a semi-anechoic chamber, the difficulty in monitoring these parameters under controlled conditions an be overcome.


Hofmann produce specialist chassis dynamometer designs which allow investigation of NVH levels whilst the vehicle is running under accurate and repeatable road load simulation, speed, force, or acceleration control.
