Moog Adds New Features To Next-Gen Test Controller For Lab Managers

Stuttgart – June 16, 2022 – From June 21-23, 2022, at the Automotive Testing Expo in Stuttgart, Moog (booth #1754) will display its next-generation test controller, which will help test lab managers unlock even more data about their test specimens. The Moog test controller is a 1- to 32-channel, real-time modular system that can control or collect data from any hydraulic or electric test system. Among the new features that Moog has added this year are:

  • Advanced control algorithms 
  • Data analysis and viewing tools 
  • Flexible hardware interfaces 
  • A report generator

The Moog test controller product family includes a wide range of modules for high precision control and collection of data and providing alternate control paths. The test controller provides manifold control for pressure in hydraulic systems along with closed-loop control of servo-hydraulic systems using actuation with force and/or position feedback. Additionally, the test controller product family includes a General-Purpose Input/Output Unit (GPIOU) that provides a channel density of 8 differential analog input and analog output channels as well as 16 digital input and digital outputs. Test lab managers and technicians can configure these for control, data acquisition, or triggering actions during test sequences.

The Moog test controller also has a built-in kinematics module that provides degree-of-freedom control of hexapod (or other orthogonal) configurations to improve control of legacy or new simulation tables.
