Benchmarking – Vehicle / System level Target setting

Benchmarking - Vehicle / System level Target setting

A) Basic Teardown (System, Sub-system & Component Levels)

1. Tear-down Activities

VEHICLE ASPECTS
Overview Picture of Vehicle Exterior & Interior, Infotainment system & cluster information, Suspensions & special features analysis, Gap and Flush Analysis, Physical Measurement LWH of the vehicle, Effort measurements etc

WEIGHT ANALYSIS
These are nothing but Finding the front and rear axle load difference weights of an Vehicle at two different conditions.

TEARDOWN
Tear down is a specialized task in automotive benchmark. Most of the vehicle manufactures spend lot of resources and time in teardown activities to get the most out of benchmarking activity.Tear down reveals the key components and features of a vehicle or system, which is required to set target for the new vehicle development.
We at GSaqure help to identify the step by step activities in a teardown. This is classified as Pre teardown, on teardown and post teardown.

Pre Tear Down

Customer touch points
Static performance
Gap & flushness
Features assessment

All the Data analysed and captured in Aspects, Teardown Process levels are mapped together in one unique platform with all information of the vehicle from the initial analysis to the final teardown deliverables listed.

2. Vehicle Reverse Cad

IMPORT ASSEMBLY 3D SCAN FILES

Using GOM blue light scanner for scanning the entire BIW Web. Importing assembly scan data in .stl format

CREATING COORDINATE SYSTEM

Creating coordinate system based on BIW Profile & Feature

CREATING CAD FOR ASSEMBLY & INDIVIDUAL PARTS SCAN DATA

Develop outer skin design of the entire BIW assembly from the scan data

INTERFEREANCE ANALYSIS

Interference and mating surface analysis on assembled CAD data.

EXPORT CAD DATA

Export either as individual file or assembly file based on customer requirements.

3. Vehicle Occupant & Architecture

Vehicle Occupant & Architecture study enables engineers to validate automotive designs against safety, occupant ergonomics, and visibility standards are measurements are taken under SAE standards

EXTERIOR MEASURE

All the exterior measure like, wheel base, windshield angle, over hang distance, Ground clearance etc are measured.

INTERIOR MEASURE

All the interior measurement like, steering angle, seating distance, pedals clearance, cargo compartment height etc are Measured.

MANIKIN MEASURE

All manikin measure like, leg room, head room, seat travel, Manikin angles, etc are Measured.

SURFACE MEASURE

All the wind shield , window , sunroof glass surface area are measured.

VISION MEASURE

The driver vision and obstruct angles are measured.

B) Functional Teardown

Functional performance testing comparison and report
