Crash Sleds
The HITS system is designed and
built based on solid engineering and proven experience. Via has installed
over 25 sled systems for customers such as General Motors, Ford Motor
Company, Allied Signal, and the University of Virginia just to name
a few.
Via's standard HITS system allows
simulation of frontal and side impact collisions at a fraction of
the cost of our competitors. Via also offers a variety of optional
add-on modules to increase sled capabilities such as:
Dynamic, destructive crush testing of vehicle components and structures.
Intrusion simulation of steering wheel, toepan, and knee bolsters.
Pre-impact braking and induced yaw and/or pitch.
Side Impact Simulation.
