CAT efficiently aids various testing of material itself, parts and entire cars, or at various environments such as at temperatures from a low of 40 degrees below freezing to a high of 40 degrees Celsius, at high attitude, at rough roads and so on. Electric sensor signals of temperatures or pressures are converted to physical data, are processed numerically and are displayed as graphs and tables. Images or sounds are also processed. We are developing ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) for safer driving with engineers.

CAT efficiently aids various testing of material itself, parts and entire cars, or at various environments such as at temperatures from a low of -40 to a high of +40 degrees centigrade, at high attitude, at rough roads and so on. Electric sensor signals of temperatures and pressures are converted to physical data, are processed numerically and are displayed as graphs and tables. Images or sounds are also processed. We are developing ITS (Intelligent Transport System) for safer driving with engineers.
01）Power plant test system:Evaluating performance and durability of engines and automatic transmissions on testing bench. Controlling their speed and load in stepwise or transient manner simulating vehicle-speed, vehicle acceleration and road inclination. Simultaneously, measuring and analyzing their characteristics. We have also developed a system analyzing combustion, which is one of the most important factor ruling the engine performance, in real time. |
