Tests during development

With its chassis dynamometer at the Test Center in Groß-Umstadt, DLG TestService offers optimum framework conditions for tests during research and development. Manufacturers can use these to compare prototypes and pre-production models with other products or to carry out optimisations for the intended purpose.

Agricultural machinery and large wheeled vehicles are put through their paces on the DLG chassis dynamometer. Driving conditions that are difficult to reproduce in road or off-road driving tests can be set and repeated with high precision on the test bench. All tests can be conducted in continuous operation. The tests are adapted precisely to customers' needs.
