5 Topology

6 Xiangyi Advantages

Modular Design:

Mechanical, electrical, and software all adopt modular design, allowing for flexible construction of the test environment based on different test objects.

Advanced Measurement and Control System:

Shares a mature platform with other Xiangyi power testing systems. Data acquisition, control, storage, and protection are all user-definable. The human-machine interface is user-friendly, with one-button automatic testing function, reducing the complexity of testing and workload for testers.
Suitable for different user groups, easy to use, and combines intelligence, openness, and flexibility.

Mature Emission Reports and Test Functions
Can achieve ESC ETC ELR WHTC WHSC NRTC NRSC emission tests and report functions
Safety Protection
It has system-level protection and user-defined multi-level protection measures to ensure the safe operation of the test bench and tests.
The test stand can be connected to a vibration monitoring system, which displays the vibration curves in both time and frequency domains in real time, the vibration trend during the test process, and automatically alarms and stops the machine when the vibration monitoring threshold is triggered.

Energy saving and environmental protection
The dynamometer allows for energy recycling, achieving energy saving and environmental protection.
