ACE Laboratories, the US-based global rubber and polymer testing and development laboratory, has expanded its dynamic testing capabilities with the addition of the Ueshima FPS Wear Testing System. This advanced equipment replicates road conditions in a controlled lab environment, allowing precise analysis of tire material characteristics and tread performance, in line with ISO 23337 standards.
The system complements ACE’s existing Ueshima Rotational Traction Measuring System (RTM Friction Tester), which evaluates the friction characteristics of tire materials under various conditions, including dry, wet and icy surfaces. Together these systems provide valuable data to support the development of tire compounds with enhanced braking, abrasion resistance and energy efficiency.
