FEA (Analytical stress & strain analyses) performed on all HoodXpress components.
This is done to ensure that you never run into stress related failures down the road.
Full kinematics models ran on each individual application.
Ensures that the unit is always located in the optimum position for best operation.
Electronic data (C.A.D. models) used for fit / tolerance checks.
There's no guessing if it will fit your application.
Key life cycle hood testing performed simulating 10 years durability @ twice / day usage.
This baby's designed to last !
Key life cycle hood testing performed with snow load (50 lb. weight bolted to hood).
And it'll last in the cold too !!
Key Fob durability testing.
Environmental chamber testing:
- High temperature testing (@ 100°C)
- Low temperature testing (@ -30°C)
- Thermal shock testing (hot - cold cycles)
Vehicle vibration measurement and testing.
Because not all roads travelled are smooth !
Severe grade operation tests.
Because not all lots are smooth either !
Extensive Over the road fleet testing.
Because we know the real world tells the real story !
HoodXpress units have been running fleet since July 2005 without incident.
