Engines Engineering in provided with an eddy current engine bench localized in the cell-conditioned. This bench is equipped with a wide range of sensors, which are required for the development of a new engine configuration.
For fatigue testing on crankshafts, you can use a Vibrophore or a servo-hydraulic testing machine. In the case shown, the S-N curve is determined to DIN 50100. Due to the relatively low frequency of 10 to 30 Hz, a servo-hydraulic testing machine was used. Fatigue occurs through flexural loading in which the mounting table and tools are arranged so that all of the crankshaft's segments can be checked by reclamping them. A fatigue limit of approximately N = 3 x 106 cycles is assumed here. Force-controlled sinusoidal cycles are performed according to the staircase method. Fatigue testing via torsional loading can also be performed using the same machine.
