We take a fresh eye view to diagnose and then solve your suspension design and vehicle dynamic characteristic challenges. We can carry out a target review and setting programme at either a whole vehicle or sub-system level and deliver back to you a suspension technology review, recommendations, or even new full design solutions.
Using the latest multi-body systems simulation tools, incorporating tyre models, we can undertake kinematic modelling of suspension systems for concept design and packaging studies, analyse suspension components for stiffness, strength and durability, and predict whole vehicle behaviour, capability and durability.
Our process can rapidly upgrade entire existing platforms or change the usage profile of the platform. We have carried out such programmes on everything from mass volume car platforms to military and off-road vehicles and even commercial aircraft undercarriages.
