Forged Wheels Performance Tests
R6061 wheels embody our dedication to quality and safety. They endure rigorous testing, including structural integrity, material analysis, and durability trials, under extreme conditions. Only after passing these tests do they earn our seal of approval, ensuring superior performance and peace of mind for our customers on the road.
Finite Element Analysis
With over 10 years of FEA wheel load data, simulation different conditions and effects on wheel design. We fine-tune our wheels to maximize wheel strength without adding excess weight.
Coordinate Measuring Check
We use CMM to check the consistency of our wheels during each stage of production to ensure every wheel we produce is within tolerance.
Tensile Test
During each production run we randomly test wheels for material and stress to ensure every wheel produced is within specification.
Hardness Check
During production, wheels go through many heat cycles. A hardness check on the aluminum during final production to ensure all wheels are properly heat-treated.
Radial Fatigue Test
Wheels testing to simulate road conditions under dynamic load for millions of revolutions.
Impact Test
To simulate the axial curb impact collision of the wheel.
Bending Fatigue Test
Testing dynamic bending fatigue on prolonged stress.
Deformation Test
Inboard rim strength testing. The inboard section is the first impact point due to the vehicle suspension offset.
Torsional Rigidity Test
All our wheel designs are tested for torsional rigidity. This is to ensure all wheels have enough torsional stiffness capability to not affect a vehicle under handling and braking conditions.
Accelerated Weather Test
This is to test the paint’s performance and simulate long-term exposure to outdoor conditions such as UV and rain.
Corrosion Test
To ensure wheels can withstand the freezing cold of the tundra and the sizzling heat of the desert, we test the performance of the material, paint and coating.
Chipping Resistance Test
Painted surfaces are tested for chip resistance. Actual gravels are used for this test.
Runout and Balance Check
Our fully automated run-out machine check for radial and lateral run-out while the balance machine check for static and dynamic balance before final packaging.
