For every export oriented automobile manufacturer it is
necessary to have an exact knowledge of the operating profiles of
his vehicles. Only with this know-how is it possible to find the
best design to meet the requirements of marketing, manufacturing,
finance and economy
Typical for this design concept is our Kadett: World-wide road
tests with comprehensive data acquisition and data evaluation have
been conducted to determine the operating profiles for various
countries and continents (Europe, United States, Australia, South
Africa, Brasil).
The achieved results serve as an experimental basis for
Single-and Multiaxial Real-Time Service Load Simulations of
components, subsystems or complete vehicles in consideration of an
optimum fatigue life prediction and an economical test
management.
Finally the importance of the test correlation between road and
laboratory tests as a world-wide task in automotive industry will
be shown.
