Vehicles must comply to national and international standards. Verification is complex, time-consuming, and expensive. At HBK, we are well aware of the test and measurement challenges throughout the product life cycle in this highly competitive market. Our first-time-right approach enables engineers to save time and money and launch their products as soon as possible. A dedicated testing solution for electric and hybrid drives helps them optimise efficiency and gain a competitive edge.
Our powerful simulation and data analysis tools provide deep insights into the vehicle’s structural behaviour to validate the design or make changes early in the process. Measuring noise and vibration and taking action to reach target levels is an essential part of physical vehicle testing. In the field, rugged mobile data acquisition devices provide accurate and reliable results. Learn more about our comprehensive test and measurement toolbox for cars, vans, and trucks.
Hybrid and electric-powered vehicles (EV) are a rapidly growing market. New powertrains are being developed at a fast pace, requiring extensive testing and optimization both on component and system level. Testing also includes auxiliary systems such as air conditioning or infotainment that affect a vehicle’s overall electrical behaviour.
Apart from evaluating power and efficiency, determining noise and vibration from development through to production is crucial to ensuring only highest-quality products are brought to market.
