Test institute for railway vehicles
Initially certified in 1997 by the Federal Railway Authority as a "test center for railway-typical tests on railway vehicles", we have been accredited to DIN EN ISO / IEC 17025 since 2008.
This accreditation confirms our competence to carry out static and dynamic strength tests on rail vehicles and their components.
In addition to the accredited scope of testing, other testing services, such as experiments are carried out to gain insight or for functional tests.
