With a simple diesel engine compression test, it is possible to spot compression problems before they get worse. Here’s information on these tests and how to decide if it is time to perform one.

Scan compression technology seems to have emerged at just the right time, offering designers the promise of reducing tester costs with only negligible impact on design performance, silicon overhead ...

President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Unlike metals and plastics, for which tensile and compressive properties are the same or very similar, unidirectional composites exhibit significantly different ...

The more compression and rebound, the less the damper is going to allow movement of the spring, and the less movement, the more stable the car is in harsh conditions.

In practice, a test setup nominally using 40 tester channels can be reduced to just two channels while still running test patterns 20 times faster than the non-compression baseline.
