Changing demands within Automotive Testing – Webinar

Airbus Helicopters is a world-leading designer and manufacturer of helicopters. The company’s product line offers the full spectrum of rotary-wing aircraft solutions for civil, government, military, law enforcement and parapublic uses. With the growth in business and innovation of their product offering, Airbus Helicopters decided to modernize their structural test facility at their main facility in Donauwörth, Germany.

A new study by Gantner Instruments shows two opposing trends: aircraft structures are becoming increasingly complex, whilst development times need to be shortened. Test engineers are continuous being pressured to look for ways to reduce test time and risk.

Porto is expanding its metro network, and a key challenge was building a new Douro River crossing that enhances mobility without disrupting the city’s iconic bridge landscape. The result is Ponte Ferreirinha, a slender concrete frame bridge carrying metro trains, cyclists, and pedestrians, blending seamlessly into a dense urban environment.

A modern infrastructure enables us to organize mobility more sustainably, transport goods and commodities in a climate-friendly way and take advantage of the opportunities offered by digitization. Doing without it is not an option.
