K&C Testing Seminars

Expert-Led K&C Seminar

Morse Measurements is pleased to offer our newly revamped 1-day K&C testing seminar, a great way to get a thorough understanding of K&C test data and its practical applications.

No matter what your experience level, our seminar will show you how to apply K&C data to get a better picture inside your vehicle’s suspension dynamics. We can conduct these seminars on-site at your facility or at our facility in Salisbury, NC. On-site seminars include live K&C test demonstrations to complement the material. Get a discount on the seminar when you purchase a seminar in conjunction with a K&C test! In this case, we will include your real measured test data in the seminar discussion.

Here’s an outline of what you will learn in the K&C testing seminar:

Introduction to Kinematic and Compliance Testing.
How the Suspension Parameter Measurement Machine, SPMM, operates, the different test types, and how to interpret test data.
Introduction to tires including how they produce grip, forces and moments acting on the tire, and what information about your tires is measured on the SPMM.
Kinematic suspension parameters measured on the SPMM and what they mean in regards to your suspension geometry.
Road Vehicle Dynamics basics including simple bicycle model, oversteer/understeer definitions, and lateral weight transfer in steady-state cornering. Furthermore, how the SPMM can apply real loading conditions, simulate steady-state cornering, and what that data reveals about the vehicle.
Transient considerations.
Vehicle modeling using K&C data.
How K&C Testing fits within overall vehicle and product development.

We’re now able to adjust our vehicle model to a more mature state that reflects the actual prototypes, and then use that model to perform more accurate simulations going forward. This is a key enabler for us to make good design decisions in a timely way and without another round of expensive prototype vehicles…

Vehicle Dynamics Engineer, Byton

K&C testing with Morse Measurements has proven invaluable in our development of superior road cars, suspension components, and championship winning race cars.

Hao Wang

Assistant General Manager, Multimatic Inc.

With the help of the very professional and competent team at Morse Measurement we got a fast and efficient evaluation of how our prototype performs versus our predictions, and a large step closer to reaching our development targets.

No other company can provide me the detailed understanding of the dynamics of the suspension and compliance of the components like Morse Measurements can with their K&C rig….I would never engineer a new car without taking it to Morse Measurements first.
