WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT WHEN SELECTING VEHICLE TEST LANE SYSTEMS?

1. Try to make a calculation of estimates on the number of Vehicles that need to be tested during your standard working day, by Category: Cars and Light Goods Vehicles – Buses, Heavy Goods Vehicles and Trailers – Motor Cycles, Trikes and Quads. With this information you are able to calculate the number of Lanes needed! VLT Car and Light Goods Lanes can handle approximately 35.000 to 40.000 Vehicles a year, Heavy and Combination Lanes approximately 20.000 to 30.000 Vehicles a year (depending on the length of the Lane), Motor Cycles more than 40.000 a year. Please note these numbers are applicable for VLT fully Automated Lanes.

2. Calculate the dimension of the Building, Office space – Test Lane(s) space and open area for lining up Vehicles and parking facilities. Do not forget parking area for your own staff and visitors, easy accessible when Station is busy.

3. SELECT EQUIPMENT DESIGNED FOR HIGH VOLUME USED DAY-IN DAY-OUT Most workshop equipment will be not resistant for fulltime use and will Breakdown periodically due

to wear, results in unexpected repair cost and down time.4. Be sure your equipment needs low maintenance and seldom repairs.5. Your supplier knows Vehicle Testing practise and looks for win – win situations.6. DO NOT COUNT ONLY THE INITIAL INVESTMENT not the most important is the purchase price, but the

maintenance and repair cost over an 8 to 10 year period or even longer.7. But still most important for you as operator is the availability of your Test Lanes! You need to serve your

clients professionally. Your clients will make free publicity for you in case they have been served well.8. The throughput; this is the number of Vehicle tests that can be conducted within one hour. Get more,

better/higher return on your investment. VLT Test Lanes are faster and need less inspectors to do higher number of inspections.

9. How reliable are your test results, makes the equipment the Pass/Fail decision or is this made by your Inspector?

10. Can you have the guarantee that spare parts will be available for ten years or more?11. Your system software is fundamental to get the speed out your Vehicle Test Lane(s).12. VLT, has the know how and the expertise to offer you this as Strategic partner.13. Your success and profitability are our drive to support you for the whole life cycle.14. VLT professional Solution provider. Make use of their Knowledge!

Pulling axle down with cylinders

VLT AXLE LOAD SIMULATORS AND AXLE LIFTS

Pull down the axle with hydraulic cylindersVLT offers a range of three different Axle Load Simulators: 4000 kg - 6000 kg and 10000 kg pulling force by two dual action hydraulic cylinders.These three models can be offered with their own hydraulic pump or can be connected to our VLT 9054 PRC Play Detector pump unit, which in that case has an extra valve set for connecting one of the Load Simulators. A proportional pressure regulator valve is used for the load adjustment.The desired axle weight is controlled with the remote control unit of the Roller Brake Tester and displayed on the readout unit.If you want to include the influence of the Load Sensing Valve of the vehicle in the test, then fit the chains/belts to the chassis.If you don’t want to include the influence of the Load Sensing Valve in the test, then fit the chains/belts around the axle.

In case a vehicle needs to perform a brake test laden, one could consider to use a load simulator. In that case the vehicles can come to the brake test unladen; the load simulator will add the required load to the axles. Regarding axle load during a brake test the following. At air suspended tandem axles the weight usually reduces a great amount during the brake test carried out at one axle at a time. This weight loss and therefore brake force loss is not present when the test is carried out with opposite

rotating wheels. For this type of test the VLT brake testers contain a special automated start sequence. When using this the wheels rotate in opposite directions and after a stop the rollers start again in different directions in order to test the opposite forward rotating wheel. At the end of the axle test the brake force values of both forward rotating wheels are combined

The use of an axle lift without tightening down the chassis or axleThis is the fastest way for increasing the axle weight. There is no need to leave the driver seat after driving on the rollers for attaching belts or chains. From the driver seat with the remote control the weight can be increased and meanwhile read from the display or monitor. The weight can be increased until the other axles near the axle on the rollers are lifted from the ground.

The use of an axle lift including the tightening down of the chassis or axle.In this way the axle load can be increased until its maximum permissible weight. For each axle however the belts or chains have to be fitted. Like with the pulling cylinders the belts or chains can be fitted to the axle or to the chassis. When fitting them to the chassis the load sensing system of the vehicle is taken into account during the brake test.

The VLT 16733 series Roller Brake Testers are in use with most UK VOSA inspection stations. Also well over 1500 machines are in use by private garages and work shops for performing the official M.O.T. inspections. These Roller Brake Testers can handle an axle weight of 16000 kg and have a measuring range of 0 - 4000 kgf. They are equipped with an operating console with TFT monitor and indication lamps, and a large readout cabinet with large 16 digit LED display, 2 pointers and several indication lamps. A 32” TFT monitor is also available as an option.

The British Ministry of Defence (MOD) uses the VLT 20733/MOD series Roller Brake Testers exclusively around the world. This is a 20000 kg / 5000 kgf model with a readout cabinet with 4 pointers on a trolley. Also available as a 24000 kg / 6000 kgf model with extra long rollers.

Both series use the VOSA database to configure the brake tests for the different vehicles. This database is updated frequently, and currently holds over 15000 DTp numbers. Just enter the vehicle’s DTp number and the Roller Brake Tester is set to test the vehicle correctly.

OVERRUN BRAKE SIMULATORSVLT Overrun Brake Simulator VLT 2106The ORIGINAL Caravan Roller Brake Simulator The VLT Overrun Brake Simulator operates the brake mechanism on the coupling of the caravan. The simulator also holds the caravan in the roller sets of the Brake Tester. The mechanism in the Brake Simulator, which is activated by hand, causes force through the coupling device on the overrun brake.This force is measured with a gauge and is displayed on the Monitor of the Roller Brake Tester. A simulator locking rail is an optional item. The Overrun Brake Simulator is available for both light and heavy Roller Brake Testers.Model VLT 2106 needs a rail to be concreted into the workshop floor:

VLT 2106-300 Rail of 3 metersVLT 2106-400 Rail of 4 metersVLT 2106-500 Rail of 5 meters

Mobile Overrun Brake Simulator VLT 2810This Overrun Brake Simulator has the same purpose as the original model VLT 2106, but there is no need to install the floor rails anymore. It can handle light trailers with overrun brakes up to 3000 kg. The VLT 2810 will be hooked on between the pulling vehicle and the caravan / trailer. The caravan can be picked up by the simulator VLT 2810 from outside and bring the caravan and simulator up to the Roller Brake Tester, and after the tests are completed bring the caravan or trailer back to the outside / parking area.Available for standard 50 mm ball coupling or for the open NATO military coupling, or a combination of both.Connection between simulator and Roller Brake Tester is available by cable or by wireless Radio Frequency.

BRAKE DATA® SOFTWAREMeasuring and analysing brake test data is becoming a full days work for many technicians working in the automotive world. Storing of all this data is more and more common. Data which is required can be consulted or reprinted at all times. VLT Brake Data® is available in different modules for cars, light goods vehicles and buses. For these vehicles which mainly have no large difference in unladen and laden condition, VLT offers VLT Brake Data® Windows, a simple solution giving all the information you need. For those vehicles, which have a greater difference in unladen and laden weight, like heavy goods vehicles, trailers, etc., VLT Brake Data® Corridor Windows is available. This program measures the brake efficiency as tested normally unladen. The air pressure in the brake cylinder is measured at the locking point of the wheel brakes. The axle weight is stored and the computer makes the calculation from the measured values, still in unladen condition of the vehicle. But we also need to calculate the brake efficiency in laden condition without having the vehicle laden. This calculation is made by the computer by extrapolation of the air pressure value, usually up to 6.5 bar. At this point we calculate the relation between the air pressure at unladen weight in the brake cylinders at 6.5 bar.

The computer calculates the total available brake force divided by the gross vehicle weight. This is the total weight of the vehicle in fully laden condition. The outcome is the brake efficiency in percentage of the gross vehicle weight. Brake Data® Corridor Windows can do this per axle separately and for the sum of all the axles. The program has a number of so called ‘Corridors’, given by government authorities on vehicle manufacturing. The program also gives the engineer the possibility to create his own ‘Corridors’. In Europe we have a number of EU corridors and by selecting one of these corridors the program will draw up a graph automatically around these lines. This all means that the ’harmonization’ can be achieved far more easily, quickly and more accurately. If testing semi-trailers, the so called K-factor is automatically calculated and taken into account by the program. There is no other way to achieve this information in such a short time and in such an easy way.

VLT ROAD CONTACT / SUSPENSION TESTERSVLT ROAD CONTACT / SUSPENSION TESTERS

The VLT Suspension Testers operate according to the well-known EUSAMA principle. However, the diagnostic options are not restricted to the contents of this specification. In addition to the usual road contact values, the following values are also measured and displayed: the contact value difference, resonance frequency and wheel weight at minimum contact value, tyre pressure value, wheel weight and axle weight. There is a general final evaluation so that all these values do not have to be interpreted after every test.

VLT also offers a Suspension Tester that goes beyond the EUSAMA measurement. It also measures phase shift, which gives more accurate results when testing vehicles with lower wheel weights or run-flat tyres. The motors are controlled by a frequency inverter.

As an option, the frequency of the moving plates can be manually set and adjusted at each value for finding annoying rattles in vehicles.

The VLT Suspension Testers can handle a drive-over axle weight of 4000 kg (max. test axle weight 2500 kg). If it is required to use one in a test lane for mixed vehicles (cars, vans, heavy weight vehicles) VLT offers motor-driven sliding protection plates that can be closed if a heavy vehicle has to drive over the Suspension Tester.

Positioning the wheels correctly on the Suspension Tester is made easy by visual instructions on the monitor.

VLT SUSPENSION / ROLLER BRAKE TESTER COMBINATIONSThe Suspension Tester can be used in combination with a VLT Roller Brake Tester. The two pieces of equipment are controlled by the same controller. A single 22”TFT/LCD monitor is used. The axle weight measured by the Suspension Tester is also used for the calculation of the brake efficiencies. The Suspension Tester and Roller Brake Tester are placed in a single subframe.A Side Slip Tester can also be included. This uses the same controller and monitor, but has its own subframe.

The user is guided through the entire testing process step by step. You can also skip tests if desired. At the end of the tests a complete test report can be printed. A very compact solution for garages and work shops.

Speedometer Tester VLT 3885 in subframe VLT 3805/T2

VLT offers Speedometer Testers for 1000 kg, 3500 kg, 6000 kg and 14000 kg axle weight, and also one for motorcycles. All developed for intensive use. All models have specially coated rollers of which 2 are connected by a propeller-shaft on which the electronic pulse counter is fitted. The signals are sent to the Speedometer Controller.The results are displayed on a 22”TFT monitor. Speedometer Testers are available in TEST LANE or STAND-ALONE version.

The VLT 1885 (the 1000 kg version) and the VLT 3885 (the 3500 kg version) are available in a Taximeter Tester configuration. This means that an electric motor is driving the rollers, ensuring that the reading is very accurate (constant speed, less sound and no Emissions). All models are very robust and can be classified as top of the market, with high value for money, fitted with a fast hydraulic lifting system which locks the rollers when the lift is up. The 14000 kg version has an independent roller braking system. A hydraulic lifting system is more expensive than the common pneumatic system, but more powerful and more reliable, especially with heavy use of the Speedometer Tester. The Test Lane versions have a drive-in sensor device for full automatic use and for extra safety.

Available options include an aircon test, and for the software a taximeter test, speed limiter test and speed warning device test.

VLT INTELLIGENT TEST LANE CONCEPTVLT, a world-wide specialist in the field of vehicle testing, has introduced its Intelligent Test Lane Concept in 1994 and is continuously updating this concept, whereby Test Lanes are created for testing trucks, trailers, buses, cars and motor cycles.

The main features of Test Lanes created with this concept are:• short testing times, thereby enabling a large throughput of vehicles;• objective, operator independent test results on most test items;• accurate measurements;• a large set of clear user instructions is displayed, which allows the

owner/ driver to stay in the vehicle during the test, thus saving manpower;

• a wide selection of test equipment for integration is available;• a large number of settings, threshold values and standards can be

accessed directly and edited by the user, provided his user rights allow this;

• the modular setup allows a complete variety of Test Lane configurations;

• easily upgradable by adding more test equipment items per lane;• easily expandable by adding more Test Lanes;• integration of Test Lanes on remote sites is possible;• link up to Government database and remote access possibilities

where applicable;• reporting software available for generating reports and overviews

for / by management.

The open structure of both hard- and software allows an easy integration of future test equipment and an easy adaption of the system to the customers (future) wishes.

The following equipment items are available in VLT’s Test Lane concept:• Vehicle Identification Station;• Sideslip (= Alignment) Tester;• Road Contact / Suspension Tester;• Brake Tester (for motor cycles combined with clamping device);• Boogie (= free rolling) Rollers;• Speedometer Tester/Taxi Meter Tester/Speed Warning Device Tester/

It can generate almost every conceivable overview report, using all the available data in the databases of all connected Test Lane Computers or Station Servers.

22

UNIQUE VLT FULLY INTEGRATED VEHICLE TEST LANE CONCEPT

Why unique?• The VLT Integrated Vehicle Test Lane works fully paperless• Has a Vehicle Tracking System, this means the System handles three

or more Vehicles at the same time in one lane and keeps the data and results of each Vehicle separate.

• VLT makes use of one Single Test Lane Computer per Test Lane• Only one time Vehicle Data input, mostly only registration number

is all you have to put in. The remaining data is retrieved from the Station Server Database.

• Unknown New Vehicles of the Database can be easily created by Menu on the Entry Console and/or on Reception.

• Pass or Fail decision is made by the Computer System, no human influence on vital inspections, like Brakes, Suspension, etc. etc.

• Very easy RETEST facilities, the VLT System knows the FAIL items of the previous inspection and commands the Vehicle straight to the selected Equipment(s). Time saving for every one, Operator and Vehicle owner as well.

• If Vehicle FAILS, a Full Test Report is printed out and gives the repair workshop all relevant information for repair and/or adjustment.

• If Vehicle PASSES, a Vehicle Fitness Certificate can be printed, or if required a Window Sticker can be produced, or even your own special system can be adopted.

• VLT Develops, configures, manufactures, installs and hands over the entire Vehicle Testing System more or less as Turn-Key, including User and Maintenance training by VLT’s own engineers, even All-In Maintenance and Repair over 5 to 10 years period can be contracted out to VLT.

• VLT has its own Software Engineering Department for Machine controlling Embedded Software and its PC – Server application Software Development Department.

• Special Above- and Undercarriage inspection systems are developed by VLT, using special Membrane keyboards and/or Touch Screen Monitors.

• VLT makes your own ideas work! You tell us what you want, we make it.

• VLT Test Lanes are known for extreme low maintenance and repair cost, this results in high availability of your Test Lane to serve your customers.
