美國MTS／Bogie & Car Characterization, Vibration and Fatigue System
Apply real or simulated rail car forces and moments to assembled bogies and complete rail cars to measure stiffness, moments of inertia and damping with exceptional precision and accuracy. The broad range of data generated by this high capacity, multi-purpose performance measurement system enables manufacturers to improve the reliability of advanced computer models.

For each bogie, there are two axle/wheelset 6DOF excitation tables with 6DOF load cells mounted in line with the wheel platform. 1. Specimen Interface 2. Longitudinal Actuator (x2) 3. Restraint Struts 4. Hydraulic Service Manifold 5. Static Support 6. Vertical Actuators (x4) 7. Module Base Plate 8. Lateral Actuator 9. 6DOF Load Transducer (x2) 10. Loading Table
