In light of the heavy load applied by traditional air spring test equipment and its complex structural system design, a lever-type torque loading air spring test system is designed. It adopts the principle of Chinese scales to apply the load on the air spring in the form of proportional amplification, which can apply a simulated load on the air spring of 500–800 kg, using the vertical sliding shaft as the transverse limit to make the air spring elongate and compress by 280 mm in the longitudinal direction. The measurement and control system of the test equipment is then developed based on the LabVIEW platform, and the required sensors are selected and installed. The system can achieve real-time data acquisition of the air pressure, load, height and other parameters of the air spring and air spring charging and discharging control. Following the debugging of the function of the test equipment, the function of each subsystem is normal and able to meet the requirements of air spring characteristic and pressure tightness tests. For small spaces, such as laboratories, by reducing the installation of hydraulic and other oil source systems, avoiding the use of large mass blocks to simulate the loading of air spring loads and optimizing the complex installation and debugging process, this miniaturized design for air spring test equipment has benefits for practical applications.
