Model development in vehicle construction
Model development in automotive engineering encompasses the conception, design, and virtual validation of vehicles and subsystems throughout the entire development process. This segment is increasingly characterized by rising system complexity, software-defined vehicle architectures, and the growing use of simulation, MBSE (Engineering, Vehicle Systems Engineering), and digital networking. At the same time, shorter development cycles, early validation, and close coordination between mechanics, electronics, and software are gaining in importance. Companies in this field must combine technical systems understanding, digital methodology expertise, and efficient development processes. This ensures that the segment remains crucial for faster innovation cycles, robust development decisions, and competitive vehicle concepts.

Coatings on vehicle components are regularly checked for their thickness during development and manufacturing. This monitoring ensures reliable corrosion protection, guarantees product quality, and helps to comply with safety-related and regulatory requirements.
When developing new car models, the drag coefficient (Cd value) is determined in a test setup using a suspended scale on a 1:4 scale model. This allows for a simple and effective evaluation of the drag and targeted support for aerodynamic optimization.
A completed 3D-printed prototype is packaged and weighed before being shipped to the client. Accurately determining the package weight helps calculate shipping costs, speeds up registration with the parcel service provider, and prevents additional charges.
