GMW 15183 Suspension Knuckle Flexural Fatigue Test

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of GMW 15183 testing. GMW 15183 is a General Motors standard that outlines testing requirements for suspension link flexural fatigue. Suspension knuckles are important components of a vehicle's suspension system, connecting the wheel and tire assembly to the suspension system and providing steering and handling.

The standard specifies the test procedure and acceptance criteria for evaluating the fatigue strength and durability of the suspension link under bending loads. The test involves subjecting the suspension knuckle to a series of controlled bending loads that simulate real-world driving conditions.

During testing, the suspension knuckle is mounted on a test rig and subjected to a series of applied bending loads to simulate real-world driving conditions. The suspension joint is monitored for any signs of deformation or malfunction, such as cracking or breakage.

The test is considered to have passed if the suspension joint remains structurally sound and operational after being subjected to bending loads. The GMW 15183 standard also sets specific acceptance criteria for testing, including factors such as maximum deformation limits and visual inspection for cracks and fractures.
