Take a breath
In order to reduce particulate matter from brake and tire abrasion in the air, the European Parliament has voted for a regulation of these non-exhaust emissions for the first time. The expansion of electrically powered vehicles will ultimately eliminate exhaust emissions completely. Therefore, the focus is shifting to non-exhaust emission sources.
Holistic Engineering & Consulting
In order to comply with limit values, we support you in the selection of friction materials and secondary measures. We offer a detailed analysis of the underlying factors influencing wear and particle formation. And thanks to our excellent knowledge of trends and technologies, you can rely on us to react flexibly and avoid costly detours.
Virtual development methods
Using CAE methods, we optimize the efficiency of secondary measures such as particle capture devices for brake and tire particles and support you in the design of the system with regard to thermal and comfort requirements as well as wear and fatigue resistance.
Data driven emissions reduction
We develop prediction models and thus a digital twin of the braking system as well as the tire with regard to wear and emission behavior. We derive control strategies, e.g. for regenerative braking. Traffic control can be optimized using V2X methods.
Technical tour of our brake emission test facilities
- Sarah Littig, Team Lead Foundation Brake
"The fact that the workshops are directly adjacent to the test benches means that we can react very quickly to customer-specific requirements. We are ideally equipped for the future. Euro 7 can come!"
- Sven Wöhling, Team Lead Vehicle Functions & Smart Test Factory
