Case Study: Continental Safety Engineering International GmbH achieves faster crash test measurements with Hexagon AICON systems

Continental Safety Engineering International GmbH - Customer Case Study

Continental Safety Engineering International GmbH, a major engineering center for vehicle safety, sought to improve the efficiency and accuracy of its crash test measurement processes. The company was using a slow, cumbersome laser gauge system for 3D measurements and dummy positioning, which did not meet the increasing demands for speed and data compatibility from automobile manufacturers.

Hexagon provided a complete solution with its AICON ProCam system for structural deformation analysis and the MoveInspect DPS system for online 3D dummy positioning. The integration of these systems streamlined Continental's workflow, automating measurements and enabling real-time data capture. Hexagon's technology delivered a 70-85% time savings in measurement tasks, significantly reducing preparation time on the crash track and providing a decisive competitive advantage through higher quality validation and cost savings.
