Tilt & Rollover Stability Testing

Services

In the realm of vehicular and machinery integrity, Tilt & Rollover Stability Testing serves as the bedrock, ensuring that the center of gravity of a fully assembled vehicle or machinery aligns with the manufacturer’s stipulated limits. This meticulous process is imperative for adherence to Transport Canada regulations and other pertinent standards governing stability.

Adherence to Stringent Standards

The validation of Tilt & Rollover Stability extends to compliance with reputable standards, including:

  • ANSI/ITSDF B56.6: Safety Standard for Rough Terrain Forklift Trucks. This standard delineates safety requisites concerning the design, operation, and maintenance of rough terrain forklift trucks, intended for use on natural and disturbed terrains.
  • ANSI/ITSDF B56.8: Safety Standard for Personnel and Burden Carriers. Focusing on powered personnel and burden carriers with three or more wheels, a maximum speed of 35 mph (56 kmph), and a load capacity not exceeding 10,000 lb (4536kg), this standard excludes vehicles primarily intended for earthmoving or over-the-road hauling.
  • SAE J2180: A Tilt Table Procedure for Measuring the Static Rollover Threshold for Heavy Trucks.
  • MIL-STD TOP 2-2-610: Gradeability and Side Slope Performance.
