Abstract The Applus IDIADA Passive Safety laboratory has a high accuracy and reliability traction system for performing crash tests. However, the system cannot be used outside the laboratory due to its type of construction. The objective of this project is to design and implement a new, portable, high-power traction system, which enables crash tests to be performed at any location and with new configurations, such as heavy-vehicle crashes, street shows and improved car2car tests. The first phase of this project, which is explained in this paper, consist of the calculations to find a motor with necessary power, the choosing of an automatic transmission system, the design of the pulley installation, anchorages and tensor mechanism. Also, includes the choosing of a suitable steel wire for the traction. The second phase that is still in progress includes the motor’s software development, all the modifications of the mechanical parts, the hardware implementation and the complete system installation. The last phase will consist of a validation test for the whole system and single components.
