The quasi-static breaking load test stand is used to determine the break resistance of constant velocity drive shafts. Two parallel shaft transmissions are connected by the test specimen and an adjustable slave shaft. Torque is applied to this torsion unit and the test is started.

NovoPS Test Stand Software

The NovoPS test stand software is a Windows-based solution that is programmed in-house and optimised for the respective test task. As the interface to the user, the uncomplicated user interface provides intuitive access to all functions of the test stand. Moreover, both the connection of the test stand to the customer's conveyor systems as well as its integration into the existing network environment is taken into account. This enables the data acquired to be processed and evaluated independently of the test stand.
