ABSTRACT THE National Tillage Machinery Laboratory (NTML) single-wheel tester has been redesigned to increase the tire-size capability and to provide electro-hydraulic servo control of the forward and angular velocities of the test wheel and the vertical load on the test wheel. This paper describes the operation and capabilities of the redesigned tire tester.
