RAMSIS SEAT BELT DESIGN is a module, the heart of which is the so-called “Electronic Beltfit Test Device”. The background: Before a vehicle can be registered in Canada, it must pass a belt routing test. Until now, authorities have only recognized actual physical test procedures. RAMSIS Seat Belt Design is the only digital test worldwide that is legally approved for certification.
The tool is based on a comprehensive library of so-called anchorage kinematics, by means of which virtually any situation can be simulated. Belt width is taken into account as are possible collisions of the belt strap with the seat.

The result of the simulation represents a seamless belt routing over the testing device and evaluates all safety-relevant aspects in accordance with Transport Canada’s criteria. Parallel to this, an even more accurate belt simulation was developed for the RAMSIS manikin. This enables you to check at first hand how the belt runs over the virtual body. This is a tool that provides you with still more time and additional design safety, proving extremely advantageous for both you and your customers. |
