Turnkey Dynamometer? Is there such a thing?
Mar 20, 2024 Episode 24
Froude Dyno

In this podcast, hosts Chris Middlemass and Mike Golda discuss the ambiguous nature of the term "turnkey" in the context of the dynamometer (Dyno) world.  The hosts highlight the challenges in defining and understanding what a turnkey system truly entails. Mike shares his perspective, stating that, in his experience, a turnkey system is often not as complete as the term suggests. The hosts emphasize the need for clear communication between buyers and suppliers to avoid misunderstandings and ensure that expectations are met. They also discuss the importance of being aware of the risks involved and being actively involved in the project to achieve the desired outcomes. The conversation delves into the complexities of specifying components, operating conditions, and the potential pitfalls of relying too heavily on a turnkey solution without a thorough understanding of the project's unique requirements.
