The Bicycle Brake Handle Fatigue Testing Machine is a cutting-edge piece of equipment engineered to evaluate the durability and fatigue resistance of bicycle brake handles—critical components that directly impact rider safety. Designed by Dongguan Feihong Instrument and Equipment Co., Ltd., this machine simulates repeated brake lever operations to determine how well handles withstand long-term use, helping manufacturers, quality control teams, and regulatory bodies ensure products meet strict safety and performance standards.
Unlike generic testing tools, this specialized machine is tailored to replicate real-world usage conditions, providing accurate data on when a brake handle might weaken, crack, or fail. Its precision testing capabilities make it an indispensable asset for anyone involved in bicycle production, quality assurance, or research and development, as it helps prevent premature failures that could lead to accidents.
The machine offers customizable testing speed settings, with a range of 0-60 cycles per minute to mimic different riding intensities—from casual city commuting to high-stress mountain biking. This flexibility ensures tests reflect the diverse ways bicycles are used, delivering results that align with real-world scenarios.
Users can preset test cycles (up to 1,000,000 cycles); the machine automatically stops once the target is reached, eliminating the need for constant monitoring. It also features an integrated digital counter that records cycles with ±1 cycle accuracy, ensuring data integrity for compliance reports and product improvement analysis.
Designed to accommodate various bicycle types, the machine works with brake handles from road bikes, mountain bikes, e-bikes, and children’s bicycles, with adjustable clamps that fit handle sizes ranging from 80mm to 150mm. This versatility makes it a cost-effective solution for facilities testing multiple product lines.
Constructed with a high-strength aluminum alloy frame, the machine withstands continuous operation without compromising stability. Its intuitive touchscreen interface simplifies setup, allowing operators to adjust parameters (speed, cycles, grip pressure) in minutes—reducing training time and human error.
Equipped with an automatic emergency stop function, the machine halts testing immediately if irregularities (e.g., handle breakage, sensor errors) are detected, protecting both the equipment and operators. It also includes overload protection to prevent damage from excessive force, ensuring long-term reliability.
Bicycle manufacturers use the machine to conduct post-production testing on 100% of finished brake handles or random samples, ensuring every unit leaving the factory meets durability standards. This step is critical for brand reputation and compliance with global regulations.
Regulatory bodies and independent labs rely on the machine to verify that products meet international standards such as ISO 4210 (Bicycles—Safety requirements for city and trekking bicycles) and CPSC 1512 (Bicycle Brake Systems), issuing certifications that validate product safety.
R&D teams leverage the machine to test new materials (e.g., reinforced plastics, carbon fiber composites) and design modifications, analyzing how changes affect fatigue resistance. This data drives innovation, helping create lighter, stronger brake handles.
Retailers and distributors use the machine to audit bulk shipments, ensuring suppliers maintain consistent quality. This reduces the risk of recalling faulty products and protects end-users from potential harm.
The machine is calibrated to align with global safety standards, including ISO 4210, CPSC 1512, and EN 14764 (City and trekking bicycles). Its testing protocols can be adjusted to meet custom standards requested by clients.
With regular use, we recommend routine maintenance every 3,000 test hours to check moving parts, calibrate sensors, and replace wear-resistant components. This ensures consistent accuracy and extends the machine’s lifespan.
Yes. E-bike brake handles often face higher stress due to increased vehicle weight and speed. The machine’s adjustable speed (up to 60 cycles/minute) and grip pressure settings make it suitable for testing e-bike-specific handles.
