 Shower Tester Application

After the engine, brakes, and optical axis of the headlights

are inspected, the vehicle is then brought in to a shower
tester where it will be subjected to a high pressure water
spray to check for leaks.

 The vehicle is set on a conveyor chain on a long conveyor

and conveyed through the shower tester at low speeds.

 There is a high possibility of stick-slipping occurring on long

conveyors at low speeds.
