Background of Development
The automotive industry is undergoing a major transformation. In particular, manufacturers are focusing on the development of xEVs and AD/ADAS vehicles, leading to a serious shortage of development resources. As a result, they are adopting model-based development processes and shifting from real-world to virtual development. On the other hand, the use of bench testing equipment remains indispensable when evaluating the increasingly diverse drive systems of xEVs.
In bench testing, the amount of data to be measured and managed is increasing with the growing number of in-vehicle electronic devices. Furthermore, the functions required for bench testing are constantly evolving to address diverse development challenges.
Therefore, we developed the FAMS-R6 as the successor to the FAMS-R5, which is our platform for bench-type testing equipment.
Overview
A major feature of the FAMS-R6 is its connectivity technology. It has evolved into a platform that can connect with various measuring instruments and simulation software, enabling the exchange of measured values and large amounts of data. The base capabilities of the previous model, the FAMS-R5, have been greatly improved, achieving a maximum of 5000 channels of measurement.
Furthermore, we have enhanced the integration between tools and benchmarks by supporting high-speed communication networks and providing a platform for external integration such as API communication.
Furthermore, the measurement panel is designed with ease of use, space-saving features, and maintainability in mind, providing a user-friendly testing environment.
A new form of bench testing realized through "connected" technology. Automatic Measurement Control System "FAMS-R6" supports the changing landscape of automotive development, driven by AD/ADAS, electrification, and more.
