NEW INTEGRATED INLINE CONCEPT FOR VEHICLE TESTING AND ADJUSTING WITHIN THE AUTOMOTIVE SERIES PRODUCTION

In the foreseeable future the integration of more and more mechatronic systems, environment sensors and driver assistant systems in modern vehicles based on a singular CPU set-up philosophy will lead the common testing- and adjusting procedures to their limits or at least it will make them uneconomic or inefficient. This present paper will introduce a new highly economic fully integrated and fully automatic InLine concept for vehicle testing and adjusting which is able to cope with the needs of new vehicle concepts from today's common configuration up to a future fully integrated Drive-by-Wire vehicle architecture shown within the EU- Projects PEIT an SPARC.
