Denton SID-IIsD Dummy Completed
Denton is pleased to announce the completion of the SID-IIsD Crash Test dummy
which is now available. The SID-IIs dummy has gone through various development stages (build levels, FRG etc.) and Denton decided to wait until a
final version of this dummy had been specified by the NHTSA (49 CFR Part 572, SubpartV). The development of the Denton SID-IIsD has been determined by a
new approach in the development and production of crash test dummies.
Where in the past a dummy was built according to a given set of drawings and
components were tested only to the certification requirements, Denton has invested extensive time in the evaluation and understanding of the material
properties. Consequently, we can now offer a test device of which the key factors of influence are well known and controlled in order to have a more
consistently manufactured test device. Furthermore, the certification of the dummy components has become much more repeatable and reproducible since
we are able to apply a much narrower certification corridor to all dummy components. As a result of all accumulated efforts, the variability of testing with
our test dummies will significantly decrease. Naturally, our world wide customers will benefit from all the experience we gained during the development as well as all the tools we
designed for making the certification testing of this ATD more repeatable.
The complete SID-IIsD dummy as well as all spare parts are currently in production. For further details on the Denton SID-IIsD, please use the link to the official data sheet.
