Design/Styling

Vehicle manufacturers are constantly faced with the challenge of balancing fuel efficiency and safety against the demands for greater performance. This, along with the growing need for reducing design and prototyping costs, has led to the implementation of many innovations; not only in features of the vehicle components, but also in the design and development process of those features. The demand for better understanding of the dynamics – and the ability to produce high-fidelity mathematical models of vehicular systems that can be used in HIL systems to test prototype controllers - has reached a critical point for many companies.

Pressurex® pressure indicating sensor film is an easy to use non-destructive testing tool that quickly, accurately and inexpensively maps and measures pressure distribution and magnitude between any two contacting or impacting surfaces. Applications include use in engine gaskets, clamping, catalytic converter canning, brakes/clutches, lamination, door seals, tire tread footprints and impacts testing.
