Pilot Center and Off-road Test Track
The
"Pilot Center" vehicle engineering facility provides a clear
span, high clearance height, and sufficient area for
performing a wide variety of vehicle engineering activities on
practically any conceivable wheeled vehicle platform. The
main area is accessible through three 15 feet high overhead
doors. Access from the Pilot Center to the machining area and
fabricating shop is through two interior doors adjacent to the
longest bay. This bay is 100ft in length and is capable of
providing ample access around tractor-trailer or articulated
urban bus.
The AEI facility
is located on 21 acres. This includes an 18 acre tract of
land directly behind the testing facility that has been
utilized to test numerous different types of non-road
vehicles, including tractors, bulldozers, backhoes, front
wheel loaders, scrapers, rollers, and compactors.
