AXIS Dynamometer

Test Drive Redefined

Powered by Dobeck Performance, the AXIS dynamometer is the future of performance tuning for race and recreational vehicles.

What is AXIS?

Designed with one goal

Accurately Replicate load, drag and gravity

With the patented Direct Torque Measurement and Air Turbines, AXIS creates real-world variables with accurate measurements. Quickly and accurately diagnose all running aspects of a vehicle while adjusting to the finest decimal. The AXIS dynamometer brings a new standard of stationary road testing for motorcycles, trikes, ATVs, UTVs / side-by-sides, and scooters.

Dyno Features

Featuring patented technology

Dynamometers are used for vehicle and engine design, to develop new aftermarket products and diagnose problems for vehicle repair. Varying degrees of complexity have been used in an attempt to simulate road conditions such as wind drag, inertia (the weight of the vehicle), or climbing a hill.

Torque Drag Traction Inertia Cooling

1 Direct Torque

PATENT #8,418,541

By utilizing our Direct Torque Measurement design and a light weight drum, the tire is touching the load cell; eliminating all frictional drag from bearings, belts and temperature changes. This technology greatly enhances the AXIS Dynamometer's repeatability and accuracy over the competition.

2 Air Turbines

PATENT #8,684,676

Air Turbines powered by the test vehicle create aerodynamic drag proportional to the vehicle’s speed. There's also an optional Air Drag Trimmer that allows for the dynamometer machine operator to trim out an additional 25% load for other special effects such as drafting.

3 Road Traction

SIMULATING ROAD CONDITIONS

The drums on the AXIS dynamometer machines are coated with a durable and rust-resistant, metalizing arc spray. This specialized arc spray material delivers uncompromised traction and tire wear that matches the road, pushing each test closer to real life conditions.

4 Variable Inertia

By simply stacking or removing up to 10 inertia discs, the test vehicle’s weight can be accurately matched. This allows for more precise tuning and provides the opportunity to test a variety of vehicles.

5 Cooling Velocity

Wind created by the turbines is redirected through the ducts to cool the test vehicle’s engine. The air velocity is proportional to the vehicle’s speed, providing the same engine cooling as driving on the road without requiring additional cooling fans.

MOTO VX-12

Motorcycle Dyno

Today’s motorcycles have primary and secondary fuel injectors, throttle control, ram air intakes, exhaust output control, launch and shift control, individual fuel and timing maps, etc. A new kind of dynamometer is required to handle these innovations. The MOTO VX-12 delivers unique features allowing the motorcycle dyno to produce track running conditions to fully analyze a vehicle to the exact detail.

AXIS Visual Software

With roots in gaming software, AVS allows you to acquire and analyze multiple variables at once and most importantly, in real time. Diagnostic graphs are displayed as the data is collected. You can scan over a dynamometer run and pinpoint any specific moment in time. You can also create your own drive cycle for the vehicle to operate in. Multi-screen options are available to analyze and compare different variables of data all at once.

The AVS allows a variety of inputs: Power(HP), Speed, Engine RPM, Engine Torque, Dyno Torque, Injector Pulse Width and Duty Cycle, Air/Fuel Ratio and Drive Ratio. The base software also comes equipped with an additional four auxiliary (0-5 volt) inputs, with the option to upgrade to as many as 64 inputs.
