Software cuts automotive testing times
Trelleborgs' automotive customers are continually demanding shorter development times, but this allows less time to test components in long life applications.
Trelleborg Automotive has selected nCode's ICE-flow GlyphWorks software for its pilot study for road load data (RLD) analysis Trelleborg is using GlyphWorks as the foundation for key development processes; embedding Trellborg's own standards and methodologies into the software

ICE-flow GlyphWorks data analysis software provides a graphical process-oriented environment that enables engineers to rapidly extract useful information from vast amounts of measured data.
Trelleborgs' automotive customers are continually demanding shorter development times, but this allows less time to test components in long life applications.
Trelleborg's goal is to establish a new process for road load data analysis across the company that helps ensure product quality and durability, while reducing time to market.
Working with GlyphWorks, Trelleborg engineers are developing a systematic process that compares existing road test data sets with target usage profiles, allowing the re-use of expensively acquired data.
The software also allows rapid test data editing, removing nondamaging signals and speeding up rig tests.
It reduces the number of validation tests required, using well defined specification envelopes.
It compares parts designed for different applications, potentially allowing part carry over between applications.
The GlyphWorks analysis software includes all the features requires for fatigue analysis and fatigue editing and is equally suitable for metallic and nonmetallic test applications with very easy to define custom damage laws.
Analysis processes are simple to develop, automate and maintain, delivering powerful methodologies that can be deployed to engineers around the world.
The Trelleborg technical centre in France is piloting this new development approach.
The standards and tools will be deployed to the other technical centres in the group; in Germany, the United States and Korea.
