Transportation

Reliable Measurements
Precision Performance
First Time, Every Time

Many of the improvements in transportation have been paralleled by the development of instrumentation to support the test applications associated with this industry. The significant risks and costs associated with failure in the transportation industry necessitate testing to levels beyond normal product improvement testing.

High Value, High Integrity

At VTI we have been supplying test instrumentation used for a variety of test needs ranging from engine test cells to electronic control units for over 20 years. Products like the VT1432 are standard within the noise, vibration and harshness communities with major analysis and automotive research houses developing software around these products.

We design and develop our products on platforms like LXI, VXI and VME that are designed to provide years of service before obsolescence becomes an issue. Utilizing these architectures in your transportation research allows you to operate the test solutions for many years, knowing that the hardware architecture will not be replaced in two to three years like the PC platform.

Turnkey, Open Solutions

If your application includes vehicle aerodynamics, marine structural integrity, train track fatigue, road paving durability or ignition system testing, we can supply the turnkey solutions directly or connect you with one of our Endorsed Solution Partners. You can be confident that we have proven our products before you install our instruments in your test application.

If your application requires a more integrated approach, you can be assured that VTI provides “open systems” based on industry standards (LXI, VXI, VME).

Modular, Fast and Connected Via Ethernet

For end-of-line test applications such as ECUs, wiper motor tests, and cable and harness testing, VTI offers both its VXI-based SMIP and VMIP products as well as the new EX1200 product family.

The EX1200 series provides a single measurement base for switching, measurement, and stimulus all in a 1U package. LXI-based instruments such as the EX1266 can be connected to other manufacturers’ instrumentation and integrated into a single, modular rack and stack test system, utilizing the benefits of IVI drivers on a recognized industry standard.

VTI’s instruments are used by some of the key automotive and transportation manufacturers around the globe. These applications include:

  • Wind tunnels
  • Engine test cells
  • Train infrastructure monitoring
  • Car transportation research
  • Vehicle road testing
  • Cable test
  • ECU/ ECM Test
