ZF Lemforder Fahrwerktechnik (Germany), Car Chassis Technology division of ZF, has improved the cost, accuracy, and speed of durability engineering by introducing fatigue-life prediction at the virtual prototyping stage. ZF develops and supplies complete front and rear axels to automobile manufacturers. These axle systems include components such as brakes, steering, wheel heads, suspensions, and power-transmitting components. An important improvement in this process has been the investment in axle test rigs that are capable of simultaneously testing 6 degrees of freedoms for each wheel corner.
