dyno INSITES
Whether you are an engineer responsible for designing an engine test cell, an operator, an engineering student, or simply a person interested in engine testing, the Dyno Insites podcast is your source for real-world, practical engine dynamometer conversation. We don't engage in lengthy banter. We get right to the point with a focus on educating our audience.
Gathering information about dynamometer test systems can involve scouring through numerous technical websites and often the information lacks the practical application aspect one seeks to fully understand engine test systems.
Join hosts and Froude engineers, Mike Golda and Chris Middlemass as they share a combined 60 years of engine test cell experience during this informative, 10 - 30 minute, monthly podcast. By the way, we don't have a fancy sound studio, we're recording in the back electronics lab in our Novi, MI location. We do our best to edit out obvious distracting noises, but we are all here and working, so the podcast may catch a bit of background noise-- perhaps a door closing or other sounds of a busy facility!

Turnkey Dynamometer? Is there such a thing?
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.
