Modern vehicle systems’ fuel tank testing is facing new difficulties as a result of innovative powertrain designs. The demands placed on tank systems are continually changing due to evolving combustion engines, various fuel types, and alternative drive ideas like hybrid and electric vehicles. Throughout the course of their service lives, these systems and components must deliver dependable service. As a result, manufacturers and suppliers must meet stringent quality standards. THE KING ROSE provides you with a wide range of services throughout the individual development and validation phases to help you simply fulfill them.
WHAT IS FUEL TANK TESTING?
A thorough evaluation of fuel tanks and components for compliance with established fuel tank testing standards and manufacturers’ specific requirements typically includes a number of different tests and assessments. Testing specific fuel tank components as well as the tank itself can include testing for durability, quality, functionality, ageing, refuelling, and materials testing, as well as fuel tank pressure testing and sled tests. Tests are conducted both in line with the wide-ranging specification sheets from the car manufacturers and with international norms and standards (including VDA, DIN, ISO and SAE).
In addition, a permeation measurement test, which checks the gasoline tank for pollutants, and a driving simulation are conducted. However, testing can also be done to post-production samples to ensure conformity. Testing is typically carried out early in the product development phase.
WHY ARE FUEL TANK TEST RESULTS IMPORTANT?
- OEMs and suppliers of fuel tank and component have various advantages thanks to fuel tank and component testing.
- Avoid expensive and time-consuming product recalls by recognizing performance, safety, and quality considerations during the product development process as well as through post-production inspection and testing.
- Working with an established testing facility will help you persuade your customers with independent confirmation of the product’s quality, reliability, and safety.
- Prior to even starting the product development process, make sure your cutting-edge gasoline tank solutions adhere to strict quality and safety standards.
- By developing a brand that stands for quality and safety, you can get a competitive edge over other suppliers.
