GIANT 6000 Series

Multi-Purpose Brake Dynamometers

The GIANT 6x00 product line is a multi-purpose, full-size inertia brake dynamometer for performance and NVH tests of brake systems from passenger vehicles to truck brakes, commercial vehicle assemblies and high-speed railway applications. The GIANT 6x00 product line offers a complete range of test functions for fully automated performance tests and basic NVH investigations and can be designed to fit the requirements of our customers.

All GIANT 6x00 Dynamometers are completely designed and manufactured in the Darmstadt, Germany factory.

Segment: Automotive

Division: Mechatronics

Manufacturing Company: HORIBA Europe GmbH

Disk and drum brakes, the corresponding components and complete axles can be tested and exposed to the same conditions which are produced during vehicle operation. The SPARC Brake controller is integrated into the STARS Brake Automation System, providing accurate inertia simulation and precise test results, which can be analyzed with the click of a button.

Plug and play concept: our dynamometers are completely commissioned and sent to the customer as a fully functional system
Machine frame resting on special vibration insulators (no seismic concrete foundation required)
Flywheel set combined with electrical inertia for a wide range of kinetic energy simulation
HORIBA designed brake actuator for precise brake pressure control
