CARBON CHASSIS
&
HIGH PERFORMANCE SUSPENSION
For meeting highest performance demands in motorsport and increasing the range-reducing weight for electric vehicles: The development of ultra-light, torsion-stiff CFRP chassis is our specialty.
In combination with high-performance suspensions, our engineers develop innovative technology platforms for the highest quality standards.
LIGHT, STABLE, SAFE
Modern lightweight construction must combine components made of fiber composite materials with high-strength steels in such a way that safety increases for all road users.
That is why it is our aim to combine different materials in such a way that lightweight construction and safety are in no way a contradiction in terms.

-
Stress Analysis
-
Crash Simulation
-
Transient Mechanics
-
Modal Analysis
HIGH-PERFORMANCE SUSPENSIONS
In order to achieve optimal driving characteristics, all suspension components must be composed within a system that – even in small assembly spaces – harmonises perfectly.
With many years of experience in suspension development in the field of motorsport and series vehicles, our engineers design requirement-oriented solutions that guarantee a perfect interaction of all components .
SIMULATION
Multi-body simulations are a versatile tool in the development process.
The effect of complex mechanical assemblies can be examined here. Areas of application are traditionally the development of suspension kinematics, but also complete vehicle models or vibration analyzes on the drive train:
-
Kinematics simulation
-
Overall vehicle simulation
-
Vibration transmission and analysis
-
Virtual test benches
-
K&C simulation
-
NVH consideration
