RAETECH Testing Services
Manifold Overpressurization Testing
RAETECH has created a test to simulate backfire events in an intake manifold. As the industry has moved from metals to plastics for intake manifolds, burst pressure has become an important issue. Certain circumstances arise which could potentially create a high-pressure impulse inside the manifold. RAETECH's test procedure evaluates the Dynamic Burst pressure capabilities of an intake system.
RAETECH's Faro co-ordinate measurement machine (CMM) can quickly measure parts small and large. Applications include quality control and reverse engineering. Often new components may need to be designed to mate to existing assemblies for which CAD data is not available. RAETECH's Faro CMM can quickly and easily generate the required dimensions.
RAETECH's 50HP Motoring Dynamometer or Spin Test rig is suitable for High Speed durability testing, Cold Start Simulations and Pump Characterization. Our Custom Heater / Chiller provides a wide range of temperature test capability. Engine Block Durability, Valve train Systems, Balance Shaft Drive Systems and Oil Pump performance have all been evaluated using our test fixture.
RAETECH uses structural testing to refine and validate computer models. Once confidence in the virtual prototype is established design modifications can be explored in software reducing the number of physical prototypes that need to be fabricated and tested. This process improves the quality of component designs while shortening the development cycle.
