Safety performance inspection

Safety performance inspection is the core of the line, covering the items directly tied to driving safety: brake testing evaluates braking force and balance on each axle; sideslip testing indicates steering-wheel alignment; suspension testing measures the damping characteristics of the wheel and suspension system; lighting and speedometer checks verify the vehicle's basic roadworthiness.

Environmental and emissions inspection

Emissions inspection targets the vehicle's exhaust condition: the appropriate driving cycle is selected for the vehicle category, chassis loading simulates on-road operation, and gas or smoke analysis captures the emissions data used to judge compliance.

The role of inspection software

Inspection software organizes the stations into one continuous chain: vehicle registration and process scheduling, unified data acquisition and processing at every station, automatic determination of results, and the generation and management of inspection reports. Software and hardware work together so multi-station inspection completes in order.
