MOTOR AND SPORT INSTITUTE TRUSTS KEELWIT FOR A 7 POSTER SERVOTEST MACHINE
KeelWit Technology is the exclusive authorized distributor in Spain and Portugal of Servotest Systems, the leading company on the design and construction of electrohydraulic test benches by vibration on vehicles and equipment. With more than 50 years of experience in England, Servotest has manufactured test benches for some of the most prestigious Formula 1 teams and for other motorsport teams. Motor & Sport Institute has purchased a 7 poster test bench that allows to simulate any uneven ground over the 4 wheels of a vehicle as well as the aerodynamic downforce in both axles. This equipment will allow MSI to offer a practical experience for its students with a test bench affordable only for very few universities. Additionally, Teo Martin Motorsport team will use the test bench to fine-tune the suspension system of its vehicles, successful winners in different categories in Europe and abroad. KeelWit and Servotest engineers will work with MSI engineers to make the best use of this sophisticated and exclusive test bench for both...
