Custom dynomometer test beds

JAD's core business is and has been the creation of engine test cells for the diesel, electrical, gas turbine and petrol motor/engine industries. 

Typical customer requisitions are as follows.

• Match the range of motors to be tested to the correct dynamometer for the application.
  
• Supply a suitable water handling system to cool the motor/dyno and get rid of all the energy: our  PLC-driven water control, protection and handling systems can be customised to your exact requirement.
  
• Supply mechanical parts to mount the motor onto the test bed as well as connections to the dyno.
  
• Supply a fuel or electrical supply handling and measurement system.
  
• Supply data acquisition panels and hardware to measure / analyse all relevant data, including temperatures, pressures, flows, acoustics, vibration, internal combustion pressures, rotational angle, torque, speed, ambient conditions, inertia, starting current and voltage, electrical power analysis

• Supply and control system to control the loading of the motor in speed, torque or power mode.
• Supply of a software environment where all data is displayed, logged and reported on as per the specifications.
• Project management of installation and commissioning.
