METHOD FOR TESTING THE BRAKING CAPACITY TO VEHICLE AND SYSTEM THEREOF

A method for checking the braking capacity of a vehicle (10), said vehicle (10) comprising a body(11), at least one wheel (15), a braking system arranged to reduce the speed of the or each wheel (15), said braking system comprising an interface device arranged to operate the braking system. The method comprises the steps of arranging the vehicle (10) in a working area (100) comprising at least one rotating roller (110) and a control unit, arrangement of body (11) in a predetermined position and associating each wheel (15) to at least one rotating roller (110) by a constraint of rolling friction, actuating the or each rotating roller (110) to put in rotation at least one wheel (15) to it associated until a predetermined speed ω is reached, actuating the braking system, by the interface device (20), for reducing the predetermined speed ω of the or each wheel (15) put in rotation, detecting the tangential force between each wheel (15) and at least one rotating roller (110) to it associated. Furthermore, downstream of the step of actuating the or each rotating roller (110), a step is provided of locking the vehicle (10) in such a way that the body (11) is maintained substantially in the predetermined position also in case of forces applied to the body (11), said step of locking carried out by means of lock means.
