Machines to test machines. Like one to test car brakes. Think a big electric motor moving an axis with several big iron wheels, to simulate inertia, and at the end a car brake system, complete (one wheel only, of course). Then speed it up, apply brakes, at several different speeds and hydraulic pressures. Also supply "wind". Measure temperatures, torques, speeds. Or maintain speed with the motor while the brake is applied, measure things. Find out at what temperature a brake fades and how (is there warning to the driver, or does the brake fade completely?) Huge fun, miserable pay. -- Cheers, Carlos. ES🇪🇸, EU🇪🇺;
