EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of GMW 14985 testing. The GMW 14985 standard is a test standard developed by General Motors (GM) to evaluate brake thermal roughness during inertial dynamometer testing. This standard is used to evaluate the performance of brakes under repeated braking conditions that can cause temperature rise which can cause thermal roughness.
Thermal roughness refers to the roughness or roughness of the brake surface of the brake rotor or drum caused by uneven heating and cooling during braking. This can result in reduced brake performance and increased wear and tear on the brake system.
The GMW 14985 standard specifies test procedures and requirements for evaluating brake thermal roughness during inertial dynamometer testing. The test involves repeatedly applying the brakes to a given speed and brake pressure while measuring the temperature of the brake system.
The standard also specifies acceptance criteria for test results. If test results show excessive thermal roughness, the brake system should be retested after allowing it to cool to ensure the problem is not caused by other factors such as brake system failure.
The GMW 14985 standard contains guidance on data analysis and reporting, as well as specifications for the equipment and instrumentation required to perform the test.
In summary, the GMW 14985 standard is a test standard developed by General Motors to evaluate brake thermal roughness during inertial dynamometer testing. The standard provides specific test procedures and acceptance criteria for testing the brake system under repeated braking conditions, helping to ensure the safety and performance of braking systems used in General Motors vehicles.
