Challenge

"Passive safety" means all measures which are necessary to protect vehicle occupants from injuries or to minimize the risk of injury. In addition to the low-deformation passenger compartment and the vehicle's deformation zones, restraint systems such as belt systems and airbags are among the essential protection systems within the passenger compartment. The development and optimization of these systems, taking into account the enormous variety of vehicle models, is a major challenge for automotive manufacturers and their suppliers. New legal requirements and more stringent consumer protection requirements (NCAP) lead to a constantly increasing number of necessary physical tests. In addition to modeling, the real test is required in the development phase for the verification and optimization of the components and structures. Crash simulation systems are also the most important development tools in the modern test lab of vehicle manufacturers or suppliers of restraint systems, seats and steering wheels to recreate real crash sequences or standardized crash pulses.

Solution

The Hydropuls® CSAadvanced was developed as a modular crash simulation system. This means that additional applications can be added to a basic system at any time. A wide range of applications and options are available. Requirements for the performance of a sled system are constantly increasing. Demands of up to 2000 test shots per year are no longer a rarity. In addition to very short times between two test shots, intelligent solutions for fast changing test setups are required to achieve this. With the solutions developed by Instron, the efficiency and productivity of the test labs are considerably increased. The high degree of automation as well as the possibility to run test pulses offline generate significant additional time savings. Existing pulses can be reproduced accurately for many years without the need to iterate the test system or signals. Finally the CSA advanced is characterized by a high availability due to minimal annual preventative maintenance requirements.
Instron has more than 50 years of applications experience with crash simulation and acceleration sled systems. Instron has sold more than 60 Hydropuls® CSAadvanced products worldwide and successfully put them into operation. 14 of these systems are additionally equipped with active controlled pitch motion simulation technology.

For the following applications, appropriate extensions can be retrofitted at any time:

  • "Low Speed Rear Impact" simulation
  • "Side and Pole Impact" simulation

With the following accessories the productivity and efficiency of the development process can be increased:

  • Frontal crash with pitch simulation
  • Quick clamping system for easy test-setup of pallets
  • New innovative sled design (2-Piece Sled)
  • Camera outriggers

Controller Labtronic® 8800ml

Labtronic 8800ml, Instrons new test controller, provides an integrated laboratory solution for all requirements from component tests through to simulation of service loads on full vehicles.

Hydropuls® actuators

Hydropuls hydraulic actuators are used in the full of static and dynamic applications where high precision simulation of movement, forces, strains and accelerations are required.

Servo valves

To deliver the full range of actuator performance requirements, a range of 2 and 3 stage servo valves with flow rates from 5 liters to 2400 liters/min are available.

Sensors

A comprehensive range of fatigue rated precision transducers are available to measure position, force, torque, pressure, strain and acceleration.

Power Packs and accessories

A modular range of variable flow hydraulic power supplies are available to service dedicated test systems or to be configured as a central laboratory supply facility. Pipeline solutions are also available to safely distribute the hydraulic supply around the lab.

CrashSim Office

The RS CrashSim simulation software is conceived for drive signal generation, visualization of the test sequence, and presentation of test results and display of the system status.

CrashSim

The system software CrashSim is used for the preparation, execution, monitoring, analysis and documentation of crash tests carried out on the Instron sled system.
