Dynisma, a leading UK-based motion simulator technology company, has introduced virtual testing technology that is transforming automotive development. According to Dynisma, their innovative motion simulator systems, the Dynisma Motion Generators (DMGs), can help automotive OEMs save over $10 million per vehicle development program by reducing the need for costly physical prototypes.
Reducing Physical Prototypes by 40%
Vehicle prototyping is a critical but expensive aspect of car development, with each physical prototype costing approximately $500,000. Traditionally, OEMs would build more than 50 prototypes for a single development program, leading to significant costs. However, Dynisma’s DMGs can reduce the number of physical prototypes required by up to 40%.
This shift from physical to virtual testing results in direct cost savings for OEMs, while still ensuring the highest standards of vehicle safety and performance are met. The DMGs offer an incredibly realistic and immersive driving experience, setting a new industry standard for driving simulation.
Shortening Development Cycles
In addition to the financial savings, Dynisma’s motion simulator technology is designed to shorten vehicle development cycles by up to 50%. Engineers can simulate real-world driving conditions with high accuracy, allowing for rapid feedback, data correlation, and decision-making. This means vehicles can get to market faster, giving OEMs a competitive edge in an industry where time to market is critical.
Environmental Impact and Sustainability
The benefits extend beyond cost and time. Dynisma’s DMGs also help OEMs reduce their carbon footprint by minimizing the need for fuel and consumables like tires during testing. Furthermore, cutting down on physical prototypes leads to indirect emissions savings, from reduced manufacturing to minimized travel for testing teams.
A New Era of Automotive Development
For automotive OEMs, adopting virtual testing technology is more than just an efficiency upgrade—it’s a strategic move that can drastically improve cost control, accelerate time to market, and promote sustainability. Dynisma’s DMGs are leading the charge, providing an unparalleled solution to traditional physical testing challenges.
