The tire very important part of all vehicle. So the component of the tire testing is very important for safety because the tire is always in running on the ground. Tire component testing is really important.
Component Of The Tire Testing:
Tires are quite complex. They might look like simple pieces of rubber, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth. The inner workings of modern tires are complex and becoming more so with every new generation of tires of the vehicle. There’s a vast amount of materials used in sidewall and tread pattern of the production, polyester, rayon, including steel, and more.
In addition, there are a variety of different rubber compounds use to produce different heat ratings, speed ratings, and load limits to learn more about. What they are the manufacture of how they work of the tire. And why tire of the wheel safety is important, refer to the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA). A national trade association for tire manufacturers.
Tires testing process is the most part. The tires made than after tire placed testing machine. It is for your and vehicle safety, comfort and consumption of vehicles. Tire testing is a high-level job for your vehicle.
After testing tire performance on the road at any road surface and almost any condition. The test trailer is designed to measure the forces and moments that arise when placing a tire on the vehicle or road in various situations (winter, summer situation) and by default, it performs mounted area. It compares On one side there is a car tire measurement setup, on the other side, there is a motorcycle tire measurement setup, with the possibility of tires to maintain angles maximum up to 70 °.
Testing Process:
It is defined as this process to measurement and understands tire performance and characteristics for all types of tires for the tire testing, including wheel alignment, wheel balancing, nitrogen filling, and rim straighten etc. Tires application on automobiles, motorcycles, trucks, and aircraft, and military. These all component to test laboratory by the testing machine. Some testing component to carry out:
1. Testing of Wheels:
Wheel balancing, also known as tire balancing, this process of equalizing the weight of your vehicles tire and wheel assembly, so that it spins smoothly at high speed balancing at the time at running the vehicle involves putting on the any road the tire of the wheel assembly on a balancer, which centers the wheel and spins it to determine where the weights should go.
wheels are made of steel, light metal, or composite materials to use mainly tires manufacturing process. The wheel is the complex composite bodies materials with various physical properties, as the link between the roadway and the vehicle, they transfer all forces and torques. These ranges perform tires stander to tests on rubber, textiles, and wires to tests on the entire wheel/tire system.
2. Testing of the rim flange:
It is determined to tires fitness properties after compression tests are performed on the rim flange with a special pressure spindle, this component testing is done by a floor-standing testing machine. Height-adjustable T-slot cross head is used to assemble the height of tires.
After this testing rims can and fix position at a comfortable height in the test area. The maximum load on the tires measurement of the axial even if lateral forces occur due to the geometric shape of the rim due to its construction and placement rim of the vehicle the load cell can insert into the upper and lower test area of the machine for measurements.
3. Test on a Hardness of the Flange:
This testing to improves and check the hardness of rim. Rim is of steel and aluminum, hardness tests are primarily performed to Binell method HBW 2.5 or Rockwell tests. This test used for production control purposes and ensure strength characteristic values. For all classic hardness test methods are given as Brinell, Rockwell, Vickers, Knoop, and ball indentation hardness etc. for metal and plastic applications.
4. Testing on Disc Brake Pads:
Disc brake pads are one of the most parts of a wheel brake. This evaluates the quality of the pads of your vehicles. On other things, the change in pad thickness through loading of your vehicle tires and the direction of the disc brake pad friction surface perpendiculars to each other. This testing component to used Zwick testing machines.
It is measured via three measuring transducers that our position at a 120° offset on a pitch circle, the pressure is applied via an adaptive piston replacement compression piece with circular force application, the testing of the compression to runs through the center axis of the or disc brake pads center of the area.
