How can materials and components withstand the stresses they are exposed to during their calculated service life without damage? We have interdisciplinary answers to questions regarding development, testing and durability – based on many years of OEM experience and thanks to our over 40 test benches and measuring facilities.

We design and implement customised and standardised test requirements. Fom the component base to complete vehicles, industry-independent. In addition to standardised test programmes, application, development and validation tests are developed, carried out and evaluated.
