Engine Testing and calibration capabilities
Break-in test, routine test, test procedures analysis and mobile test stand for Wankel engines
Sky Power International offers comprehensive testing capabilities for their UAV engines to analyze their performance, condition and to proof the engine durability. Our Engine testing standards are specifically designed to perform both routine checks and detailed analysis.
A break-in test is an essential running-in process that Sky Power carries out for its UAV engines. The engine is operated under controlled conditions to ensure that the moving parts are optimally tuned.
At Sky Power, the break-in test is carried out on specially equipped test benches, where each engine is subjected to a defined load and runtime sequence. This ensures that the engine reaches its maximum performance and offers a high level of operational reliability. This running-in process not only extends the service life of the engines but also ensures their reliability under real operating conditions.
To ensure the performance and functionality of the engine, every engine is tested on our test bench before delivery.
Engine tests for analysis are depending on the condition of the engine. If any abnormalities occur during a performance test, we dismantle after consultation with the customer specific engine components for more detailed examinations. Cylinders, pistons and piston rings can be checked for wear and damage. After a thorough inspection, we carry out any necessary maintenance work.
Sky Power is committed to the highest quality standards and thoroughly tests each engine to meet the requirements of demanding UAV applications. If you need more information about our testing procedures, please contact us.
Sky Power’s SRE180 test stand provides a test solution for the Wankel engine SP-180. Due to the compact design the whole test stand is well suited for portable use. Test stands help to save costs by reducing expensive flight tests and identifying potential on the ground. This lowers development and operating costs and contributes to improving the overall cost-effectiveness of a UAV project. Another major advantage of engine test stands is the ability to carry out reproducible tests. Engineers can carry out the same tests several times to ensure consistency and reliability of the results.
