Testing Technology

Testing equipment for testing the durability of vehicles has a modular structure. The use of standardised subassemblies combined with intelligent engineering yields individual concepts, which can be integrated in the individual testing equipment in the form of self-contained overall systems.

With the testing rigs in the form either of testing function rigs for hydraulic components/vehicle components or of testing component rigs for testing the durability of vehicle components, weak points are identified and eliminated, and product quality is documented.

Typical test centers of car manufacturers and OEM car part suppliers need to supply a wide range of hydraulic actuators of different testing and simulation equipment.

For this purpose it is of high advantage to install a central hydraulic power station with a programmable controller to control the pressure supply. This comprises inhouse pipework with a pressure, tank and leakage oil line, the shut-off valves and monitoring sensors.

The automotive industry continuously is facing demands for tougher safety standards which has been compelled to build high-precision test equipment.

Real and inverse crash facilities are the answer to this question. They are used in the laboratory to investigate accident situations to get information about the passive safety of the vehicle and its components.
