test stands

Test stands are specialized setups or fixtures used to evaluate and measure the performance of engines, machinery, or components under controlled conditions. They provide a safe environment where engineers can simulate real-world operating scenarios, monitor variables like power, fuel efficiency, and emissions, and identify any issues. Think of them as laboratory environments for machinery, allowing thorough testing without putting the actual equipment into service. This process ensures that the products meet safety, quality, and performance standards before they are deployed in real-world applications.
