Increased Capacity and Versatility of Test Frame
EF 2024-25 · 2024-05-01
Résumé
The project aims to add seat belt anchorage and other tensile testing applications such as bollards, bolts, pipes, rods, chains, slings, etc. to our ROPS test station. These new tensile test arrangements would be designed with a set of reusable adaptors and jigs to accommodate different test specimens.
Battery Electric Vehicles that are being introduced to the market are heavier than their ICE counterparts. The increase in weight is causing OEMs to retest their existing CABS so that they can be recertified for higher vehicle weight ratings of BEVs. With this increase in demand for ROPS certification, we would like to be able to offer our customers the additional service of seatbelt and anchor point testing at the same time.

Description (French)
Le projet vise à ajouter à notre station d’essai SPR des ancrages de ceintures de sécurité et d’autres applications d’essai de traction telles que des bollards, des boulons, des tuyaux, des tiges, des chaînes, des élingues, etc. Ces nouveaux dispositifs d’essai de traction seraient conçus avec un ensemble d’adaptateurs et de gabarits réutilisables pour accueillir différents spécimens d’essai. Les véhicules électriques à batterie qui sont introduits sur le marché sont plus lourds que leurs homologues à moteur à combustion interne. Cette augmentation de poids incite les équipementiers à tester à nouveau leurs CABS existants afin qu’ils puissent être recertifiés pour les poids nominaux plus élevés des véhicules électriques à batterie. Avec cette augmentation de la demande de certification SPR, nous aimerions pouvoir offrir à nos clients le service supplémentaire de test des ceintures de sécurité et des points d’ancrage en même temps.
