User friendly, intuitive and reliable Windows® software developed using LabVIEW™
Large double glazed doors for full access which enable visual monitoring of the test if required
Simulate the effect of traffic
The CS-WTEN1 wheel tracker performs both procedures A and B specified for the small scale device in EN 12697-22. Procedure A requires that six specimens are tested. For procedure B only two specimens need to be tested, but rut depth must be measured at more points along the longitudinal rut profile. To speed up the testing process the CS-WTEN2 was designed to test two specimens simultaneously.
