Testing device for measuring the rolling resistance and noise of passenger car and truck tires with unique research capabilities in the world. Unlike typical running machines, "DRUM 2.0" enables precise measurement of rolling resistance in a wide temperature range (-15 C° to + 30 C°) because it is placed in a thermostatic chamber equipped with high-power cooling and heating devices. The device allows you to carry out measurements up to a speed of 150 km/h. In addition, unique replicas of road surfaces, made on the basis of our own patent, are mounted on the drum. The device is used for research carried out as part of international and national projects as well as in research for industry and the military.\n
