Crash Simulation Test System for Passive Safety Validation

The Crash Simulation Test System is a high-performance solution designed to replicate vehicle crash scenarios with precision and repeatability. Using a direct catapult mechanism, the system launches a guided specimen platform (commonly referred to as a sled) at a programmed speed, simulating real-world impact conditions. The system then decelerates the sled in line with regulatory impact curve requirements, ensuring accurate and consistent test results for passive safety validation.

This test system offers flexible configuration options to meet diverse testing needs. For propulsion, users can choose between bungee cord drive systems for a cost-effective setup or an electric drive system for enhanced control and energy efficiency. Likewise, deceleration options include either polyurethane tubes or a bending bar barrier, both of which can be tailored to replicate specific crash pulse characteristics based on international regulations or internal R&D protocols.

Engineered as a modular and scalable platform, the system is ideal for both homologation and Conformity of Production (COP) testing. It can be upgraded over time, offering long-term value and adaptability as test requirements evolve. Its ability to deliver high-speed accuracy with predictable and repeatable crash pulses makes it a trusted solution for automotive OEMs, regulatory bodies, and research institutions.
