The modular range of workshop equipment is rounded off by stress test rigs for bogies which are made with different levels of automation for floor-mounted or underfloor use.
Given the wide variety of bogie types, there can be varying numbers of load points, ranging from one or two to four in the case of Jacobs bogies. Nominal load forces or overload forces can also vary immensely (e.g. 200 kN - 500 kN).
Apart from measuring specific height dimensions and other points of measurement within defined force ranges, it is important to use appropriate instruments to measure the wheel contact forces and their distribution in the bogie.
Variable gauge widths may also be of interest in certain situations.
