Automotive Research Testing Center

Description

ARTC Crash Testing Lab. is the only one technical service in Taiwan, which supplies full-scale vehicle crash test, sled test for crash simulation and high speed photography & image analysis. This laboratory was established in 2005 to promote the occupant protection and crash performance for vehicle-related industries including onboard 3C products. In addition, ARTC provides total solution from CAE (Computer aided engineering) to crash testing. We build a excellent combination with CAE, academic research and experimental testing. Furthermore the crash laboratory provides domestic and international clients with various customized technical services.
