Prototype construction/special constructions

Today, the development of innovative vehicles is largely carried out with the help of numerical and virtual tools. Nevertheless, at specific points in the development process it is necessary to physically construct test vehicles in order to validate virtually gained knowledge and to secure it in the form of test bench tests.

Prototypenbau/Sonderkonstruktionen

Die Entwicklung innovativer Fahrzeuge erfolgt heute in hohem Maße mit Hilfe numerischer und virtueller Tools. Dennoch ist es an spezifischen Punkten des Entwicklungsprozesses erforderlich, Versuchsträger auch physisch aufzubauen um virtuell gewonnene Erkenntnisse zu validieren und in Form von Prüfstandsversuchen abzusichern.

We support your project with interdisciplinary competencies, if desired from the early concept phase, through the design and construction phase to the realization of prototype vehicle superstructures and customer-specific conversions. We can also support you in the physical testing of your prototype with a wide range of test benches across all vehicle areas. In addition, we also develop customer-specific test benches that meet your individual requirements.

With the help of our experts, we develop individual special solutions for you that are highly up-to-date with regard to the use of materials and production technologies. Whether fibre composites or generative manufacturing, we will find a tailor-made solution for your application. If necessary, we can fall back on a broad spectrum of competent partners with whom we have been working together for many years.
