The wind tunnel balance consists of four individual fully-fledged six-component balances and forms the basis of the entire balance platform module
and combined using precision amplifiers from HBM. An electromechanical test weight is incorporated into each individual balance in order to prevent measuring errors from occurring. This reference weight allows the individual balances to be checked for correct functioning at all times while revealing measuring errors at an early stage, thus avoiding costly repeat measurements. The data acquired are used to calculate the forces required and to determine the four single-wheel lift forces, the overall resistance of the vehicle and the lateral forces at the front and rear axles. All four individual balances can be adjusted electromechanically in such a way that measurements of the entire range of motor vehicles can be accommodated. Wheelbase and track direction can be adjusted
