Innovation

1:5 Scaled Dyno

Glory invented 1:5 scaled dyno test machine with climate control to conduct core development of formulation,benchmark tests of different materials, and friction tests for Chinese National standard and CAAM (China Association of Automobile Manufactures) standard of brake pads.

GB/T 41663—2022

Road vehicles - Brake lining friction materials - Scale inertia dynamometer test method

This development method provides us with more effective data compared with full-scale dyno test. Better formulation and process optimization enables in-depth investigation of difficult problems, such as Creep-Groan noise

Testing

High Performance Testing

Glory has abundant European road test site resources as well as the extreme performance testing such as: AMS, HFT

The AMS test was initiated by the German automotive magazine Auto-Motor-Sport. The test targets high performance and the main criteria tested are friction stability, pedal travel, fluid displacement and braking distance.

The HFT test is a mandatory European high performance test. The test simulates aggressive driving on the Autobahn (Germany without speed limits).

Testing

Cold Testing

Glory conducts vehicle cold testing in the extreme, real-life conditions in China and abroad. (Switzerland and Heihe Northernmost City of CN)
