Rotating wheel dynamometer is optimized

Kistler's rotating wheel dynamometer installs in place of a standard rim to measure dynamic forces acting between the road and the automobile. It is available in two versions: the standard wheel is optimized for maximum load, and the light version (35% lighter) is optimized for minimal mass. The use of piezoelectric quartz force sensors and integrated built-in electronics gives the highest possible measurement performance and makes the system rugged and easy to use.
