Missionized tire wear testing helping tire designers fail fast to move forward
Additively manufactured tiles produced by Open Additive, such as those shown, for use in the 168-inch internal drum dynamometer at the Landing Gear Test Facility, or LGTF, at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, are being developed and produced through a Small Business Innovative Research contract. A complete usable tile for use in the dynamometer is expected within the year. (Courtesy photo)
