CTW Automation

CTW is useful when the test is defined by force, movement, velocity and time. The platform is configurable, which makes it powerful for railway components when the actual test envelope fits.
FULL TECHNOLOGY OFFERING

One platform family covers characterization, programmable motion and production testing.

CTW should be selected from the physics of the test rather than from a generic 'railway tester' label.

RD dyno family

Crank-type damper dynamometers for repeatable force-versus-velocity characterization across different performance classes.

DAMPERFORCE-VELOCITYCRANK DYNO

LA linear actuators

Programmable electric actuators for arbitrary waveforms, longer stroke and more complex dynamic testing.

PROGRAMMABLETRACK REPLAYLONG STROKE

SR-17 spring rater

Configurable spring testing for springs, coil-overs and elastomers where the required load/travel envelope fits.

SPRINGELASTOMERLOAD-DISPLACEMENT

Automation & retrofit

End-of-line systems, software, calibration and legacy-equipment retrofit for repeatable production and lifecycle support.

CAPABILITY MAP

Four ways CTW creates useful test evidence.

01

Characterization

Measure how a component responds across controlled velocity or displacement.

02

Programmable testing

Reproduce custom waveforms and complex motion.

03

Production QA

Turn a lab method into a repeatable end-of-line station.

04

Retrofit & lifecycle

Upgrade controls, software and calibration instead of discarding the installed frame.

DYNAMIC TEST BENCH FINDER

Match the test physics before choosing a machine family.

A preliminary machine route is shown only when force, speed and stroke fit the configured operating envelope.

GUIDED SELECTION

What kind of component behavior are you trying to reproduce?

Choose the test physics first. Then verify the CTW machine envelope.

RD dyno family

Use a crank dynamometer where the goal is repeatable force-versus-velocity characterization within the machine's stroke and force envelope.

Railway application fit must be established from force, velocity, stroke, duty cycle, fixture, environment and acceptance method. CTW is selected where the resulting machine envelope and test method fit the railway application.Kesesuaian aplikasi perkeretaapian ditentukan dari gaya, kecepatan, stroke, duty cycle, fixture, lingkungan, dan metode penerimaan. CTW dipilih ketika rentang kerja mesin dan metode pengujiannya sesuai dengan aplikasi perkeretaapian.
WHY CTW?

Configurable test physics instead of a one-purpose machine.

CTW's USP is flexibility. That is valuable for development labs, component manufacturers and workshops with varied dynamic-test needs, but it also means CBP must protect the boundary between application fit and railway-specific qualification.

Indonesian application context

Current CBP principal route

CTW supports CBP for dynamic component testing where the required force, motion, fixtures and acceptance method fit the platform. Application selection is based on the current component, test duty and acceptance requirement.

WHAT CBP ADDS

CBP decides whether flexibility or railway-specific specialization is the better answer.

01 · Define envelopeForce, speed, stroke and waveform.
02 · Choose platformCrank dyno, linear actuator, spring rater or custom automation.
03 · Engineer fixtureMounting and instrumentation determine repeatability.
04 · Validate methodAcceptance logic, calibration and reporting make the test usable.
