LABA7 Explores the Next Gen of Shock Absorber Testing, From Crank Dynos to Electromagnetic Tech
On EPARTRADE’s Race Industry Now, LABA7 demonstrated how programmable motion, high-resolution data acquisition and integrated software can help engineers investigate damper behavior beyond conventional force curves.
Shock absorber testing provides essential information for suspension tuning, quality control and product development. But the motion used to test a damper determines what engineers can learn from the results.
That principle was central to EPARTRADE’s Race Industry Now Episode 639, “Shock Absorber Testing: From Crank Dynos to Electromagnetic Technology,” featuring Andrius Liškus, CEO & Head of R&D, LABA7, and Andrius Petkauskas, Co-Founder & Head of Software, LABA7. Hosted by Brad Gillie from SiriusXM, Ch. 90, Late Shift, the session examined the capabilities of conventional crank dynos, servo-hydraulic systems and electromagnetic testing machines, supported by a detailed software demonstration.
