How precisely must the airbag software be set so that an airbag only deploys when it really should? Our passive safety engineers test this.

Whether it’s a wild boar mockup, a pile of gravel or a pothole – a wide variety of scenarios can be simulated in a standardized way or according to individual customer requirements and evaluated after the test.

Details:

• Tests are carried out in accordance with VDA guidelines and worldwide standards curb (100 – 150 mm) & steel beam (80 – 140 mm)
• Ballast pile & traps
• Artificial wild boar (50 kg & 80 kg)
• Pendulum (bicycle, shopping cart, vandalism) & sled (lateral curb impact)
• Potholes & ramp
• Rollover (banked curve, slalom, lane change)
• Rough road (Belgian block, washboard slope, corrugated gravel road)
• SUV-specific test scenarios (railroad tie, curb drop)
