Apply precise motion and/or force input(s) into the tire patch or spindle to measure traditional Kinematic and Compliance deflection (K&C) properties and characterize vehicle suspension and steering assemblies under dynamic synthetic or real-world transient driving maneuver inputs. Suitable for passenger cars, SUVs, and light trucks, DK&C systems accommodate numerous options to characterize additional vehicle attributes, including CG/VIM, torsional rigidity, etc.

1. The max weight of vehicles tested on the DK&C is customer suspension dependent. With K&C vertical and roll kinematic tests we need to push the suspension into the jounce bumper, this usually takes 1.5-3x the corner weight of the vehicle. For example, if the vehicle is 4 mtons = 1 mton per corner weight, than it would take approximately 1.5 to 3 mtons per corner to push the suspension up to the jounce bumper. Thus, the DK&C can be used for 8-10 mton vehicles.
