6. Operator control and stability
To provide individual speed, torque, and angle
control of each wheel/roll in AWD applications.
7. Drastic heat reduction
Comfortable temperatures inside the chassis
dynamometer pit improve work environment
and overall safety.
8. Noise Level
Water jacket cooled PM dynamometers operate
quietly, making undesirable noises easier to
detect and the work environment safer.
