COMPANY NEWS

High Speed Tire and Wheel Uniformity
Kokusai has released a new product to the automotive world. Based on experience in High Speed Uniformity testing on tires, Kokusai developed a machine that can test a Tire and Wheel assembly at High Speeds also. Several Japanese auto companies had already begun requiring high speed testing on their tires and wanted the capability to test on a tire and wheel assembly. Co-development of a machine that perform the same tests has been completed and a few of these machines are in production now.  For a recent technical paper on High Speed Uniformity, click here.

Flat Belt Testing
Certain aspects of the tire are not currently being tested and leading to “shake”, “shimmy” and other vibrations. Residual Cornering Forces and Self Aligning Torque are issues that continue to plague the automotive world. A development project, leading to a full working production prototype, has been completed and will be installed directly into the production line of a major Japanese auto company. This is a very unique machine offering new testing capability never seen before in the production world. For a recent technical paper on High Speed Uniformity and Flat Belt Testing,  click here.

Wheel Gauging and Wheel Balancing
A completely new design for wheel gauging was recently completed and several machines have been installed and are working in production. This new gauger can handle a large range of wheels at very fast cycle-times. Fully integrated servo systems allow for quick but smooth part handling while minimizing the amount of floor space needed. A new line of wheel balancing is also underway utilizing much of the new technology of the gauger. The combination is unbeatable.
