Test systems and engineering applications

Real tests.
Reusable knowledge.

We turn the experience we have built up in vehicle and component development into test systems and, with Veriflow , into automated analysis. Four applications, from measurement to result.

  • Test automation

01 /Driveline

We bring real-world loads into the test cell.

To see how axles and drivelines behave under different loads, and to validate design decisions through measurement.

Our field experience

We developed the system design, manufacturing, controls and data acquisition infrastructure of the axle dynamometer.

With Veriflow

Test data can be evaluated by operating condition, and repeated analyses can be automated. With a sensor that can be used at axle level, continuous monitoring in the field is also possible: large amounts of test data are obtained simultaneously from real field data. Field data can thus be integrated directly into product development.

What need does it address?

Reviewing long test recordings, isolating critical operating conditions and comparing the behaviour of different designs with a consistent method.

02 /End-of-line inspection

Every product, the same evaluation standard.

To inspect components coming off the line against defined criteria and to keep a record of the results.

Our field experience

We developed automated EoL systems that bring together the test plan, data acquisition, limit checks and reporting.

With Veriflow

Signal processing methods and AI-assisted anomaly analysis can complement the defined limit checks. Reports can be generated automatically, results can be compared with historical production data, and sound and vibration behaviour that needs review can be flagged separately.

What need does it address?

Reducing operator-dependent differences in evaluation, making test results traceable and passing deviations from normal behaviour on for engineering review.

03 /Noise and vibration

From complaint to measurable finding.

To understand noises that appear only at certain speeds and loads, and to show the effect of an improvement.

Our field experience

We have worked on vibration, durability and noise problems with many OEMs and suppliers, comparing improvements with before-and-after measurements.

With Veriflow

Quality expectations can be linked directly to the measured signals. Sound, vibration and vehicle data are evaluated together to isolate relevant events within long recordings, and physics-based analysis and anomaly detection provide input for root cause analysis.

What need does it address?

Reducing the time spent reproducing a problem, linking complaints to operating conditions and evaluating improvements with comparable metrics.

  • Sign-off testing

04 /Sign-off testing

From test experience to automated evaluation.

To focus on results in sign-off testing of engines and auxiliary systems, instead of redoing the same analyses on every repeat.

Our field experience

We carried out engine and air compressor sign-off tests, evaluating the compressor's duty cycle, its control commands and its actual response together.

With Veriflow

The methods and evaluation rules we use in these tests can be transferred to Veriflow. Defined analyses then run automatically, so deviations and the results of repeat tests can be compared.

Example: air compressor duty cycle

The duty cycle and the delay between the CAN command and the compressor engaging were examined together. After a change to the controls, the test was repeated and the target duty cycle was confirmed. This approach forms the basis for automating repeated analyses.

Engineering infrastructure

Test systems we design and build

We develop our test infrastructure in-house, from system design and manufacturing to controls and data acquisition.

Our common approach

Experience creates value again with every new analysis.

  1. 01We measure

    We record the real system's behaviour together with its operating conditions.

  2. 02We turn it into method

    We translate field knowledge into analysis steps and evaluation criteria.

  3. 03We automate

    With Veriflow, we run repeated analyses faster and more consistently.
