The Design of Control System of No-load Test Bed for Truck Transmission

Abstract

In this paper, I mainly introduce a control system used on the test bed, to test the function of the truck transmission by LABVIEW software. The control system exchanges data between PLC and host computer software mainly by the OPC technology. The client of the OPC running on IPC is programmed with LABVIEW. The functions of the control system mainly include exchanging varieties automatically, testing the functions automatically, acquiring the data to deal with and storage, generating reports and others. The truck transmission test bed is successfully used to produce the transmission in the Fast Auto Drive company in Thailand, which ensures the quality of products and improves the competitiveness of them.
