How powerful is your product?
Get to know your product better!
Put your product through its paces in our Large Cube. Does your air conditioning system ensure maximum cabin comfort at low temperatures and at an altitude of 4680 meters? Are your windshields and headlights defrosted in the shortest possible time even in sub-zero temperatures? Find out with a “performance test” in our Large Cube. Our experienced team is on hand to support you in defining test scenarios and throughout the entire test cycle. Entire machines and devices such as drones, heat pumps, construction and off-road vehicles as well as individual components such as headlights, windshields and batteries.
To test the comfort of cabins, for instance spaces for drivers and passengers, we expose the cabin to very high and low temperatures. We then check how long it takes to cool down or heat up the cabin using the air conditioning system in the cabin. If cabs are tested in isolation, for example without the vehicleʼs engine, we can recreate heating and cooling circuits. If you want to know what outdoor conditions your productʼs air conditioning system can withstand, you can also test this with us – in accordance with ISO standard 14269-2:2006.
To study the effectiveness of de-icing measures, we can generate extreme cold and wind. We can apply ice to the test object – from one or all sides, as required. The particle size of the drops to be iced can be varied, thus influencing the ice property. The ice-air mixture is produced in a controlled manner, and all the necessary parameters are recorded. After the de-icing tests have been carried out, we can provide you with video footage of the de-icing process.
In addition, we are able to test drones of different sizes and power classes, including individual components such as rotors, batteries, controllers and motors. Altitude cold and icing can be generated in a controlled manner, and the tractive force of the drone can be measured. In the Large Cube, we are able to simulate extreme altitude – up to 9000 meters – and extreme weather phenomena. This means you donʼt have to take your test object to the extremes, we deliver them directly to your prepared test setup.
The test in a nutshell:
Measures:
The interior dimensions of the Large Cube are 12 m x 6 m x 5 m (L x W x H). The total available area is 137 m² plus 100 m² for test set-up. The entrance to the test chamber is formed by a wing gate with the dimensions: 3.6 m x 4 m (W x H). The maximum size of the test object can be 10 m x 3.6 m x 4 m (L x W x H).
