The ERNST Company has completed the new Porsche test center
Porsche AG in Weissach obtains state of the art roof crush test bed The
ERNST + Co Prüfmaschinen GmbH has produced a roof crush test bed for the Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG test center in Weissach. The roof crush test bed is designed for tests according to FMVSS 216. However, the device
surpasses the specifications of the FMVSS-regulation by far. This allows for a maximum test force of 245 kN, at which the device deforms less than 1 mm.
This stiffness produces high-precision test readings. The five axes are all electromechanically powered and are connected directly with the test beds
control system. A maximum in accuracy and stiffness of the roof crush test bed is warranted by using the recirculating ballscrew and linear ways. read full story in pdf format
