Bosch Rexroth has opened a new research and development vehicle testing area near its manufacturing facility in Fountain Inn.
Located in Southchase Industrial Park, the company’s existing operations manufacture various types of hydraulic pumps and motors for the construction, agriculture, mining, material handling, and oil and gas exploration industries.
The new testing area will be used to showcase and evaluate new and current machinery, as well as, confirm endurance levels, according to a press release. It includes gravel, concrete, and wash pads to test for things like traction control and drive systems. An excavation site also allows for safety testing.
“With the new test area, customers are active participants in the testing and commissioning of their vehicles and evaluate new products on demo machines,” the company said. “Customer vehicle commissioning, prototype vehicle functional testing, prototype evaluation, components endurance testing, and new control algorithm evaluations are just a few of the possibilities the new vehicle test area opens.”
