Case Study: Electromagnetic Damper Testing for Global F2 & F3 Success
Company: AIX Racing – FIA Formula 2 & Formula 3 Team
Challenge
Competing in Formula 2 and Formula 3 requires near-perfect performance from every component, including the suspension. AIX Racing was seeking a solution that would help address three key challenges: improving their understanding of damper behavior, managing tire performance, and bringing development processes in-house, thereby eliminating their reliance on external services.
Solution
AIX Racing chose the LABA7 Electromagnetic Damper Test System (EMA). It delivers low latency, precision, and a very compact footprint. Besides comprehensive R&D, the team uses EMA to test dampers after every race and ensure that track setups align with lab-measured performance.
Result
AIX Racing reports improved lap times, better handling, and optimized tire performance as direct outcomes of using LABA7 EMA. Having the ability to test and develop dampers in-house ensures the team’s independence, which translates to faster iterations and measurable gains that drivers can feel on track.
Case Study: How Samsonas Motorsport Transformed Damper Development with LABA7 EMA
Company: Samsonas Motorsport – Gearbox & Dampers Company
Challenge
Samsonas Motorsport develops high-performance transmissions and shock absorbers for demanding motorsport categories. Despite years of experience, their engineers were seeking a clearer understanding of what truly happens inside a damper. Ordinary testing provided some data, but not at the level needed to refine valving and oil behavior.
Solution
The Samsonas Motorsport team integrated the LABA7 Electromagnetic Damper Test System (EMA) into their R&D workflow. Its electromagnetic actuator and fast control system allowed them to see damping forces in real-time. Even when replicating quickly changing velocities of the rally stages. Additionally, Samsonas Motorsport managed to capture how damper behavior evolves during the run (in real time) by adding external temperature and pressure modules.
Result
LABA7 EMA helped them to unlock the damper performance data they had not seen before. Now, they could observe pressure, temperature, and other dynamic effects in real time. This instant feedback helped them refine valving decisions, validate changes on the spot, and save significant costs by moving much of the testing from the car to the lab.
Today, the EMA bridges the gap between hypothesis and validation. It makes Samsonas Motorsport faster, more efficient, and more precise in every development step.
