ATI/HEITZ

ATI had been performing CG and various chassis parameter measurements on an as-requested basis since the 1970's. In 1992, anticipating that mathematical simulation models would soon come into wide use, it was decided to organize a complete chassis parameter capability, including all inertial, kinematics, compliance, steering, and shock absorber/strut items. Heitz Automotive Testing was formed as a separate, but complementary, entity, organized to do in-lab parameter testing as Heitz Chassis Lab, with ATI concentrating on vehicle handling testing. Acting together, using identical data acquisition hardware and complementary software, ATI/Heitz offers capability for complete evaluation of vehicles or simulation models... ATI has always concentrated on standardized tests performed to industry protocols. For many years we have been active in preparing standards for handling qualities measurements, as a participant in the SAE Vehicle Dynamics Committee and in the American Advisory Group to..
