Overview

The MTS Spinning Wheel Integrated Force Transducer (SWIFT

®

) is a light-

weight, easy-to-use transducer that enables you to conduct faster, less expensive
data acquisition and road simulation testing.

The transducer is designed for use both on the test track and in the test laboratory.
It attaches to the test vehicle or an MTS Series 329 Road Simulator using an
adapter and a modified wheel rim.

You can achieve excellent data correlation using the same transducer and vehicle
on the test track and on a road simulator. It is available in various sizes and
materials to fit various vehicle and loading requirements.
