We are certified according to:

ISO 9001, 14001, 50001, 27001, 45001
EN 9100 (aviation), ISO 13485 (medical technology), ISO 17025 (testing laboratories)

Spotlights Simulation

Harri 2.0

Harri 2.0 – Bertrandt's virtual complete vehicle model: OEM-independent, fully described, and ready for realistic crash simulations. Test your components early on – safely, flexibly, and at the highest level of simulation.

AI-based motion tracking

Precise motion detection meets artificial intelligence: Our AI-based motion tracking reconstructs real test movements from video data – quickly, accurately, and close to simulation. For more efficient validation and deeper insights into the interaction between testing and simulation.

Material cards Creation for simulation

From sample preparation to validated material cards: we provide accurate, simulation-ready material data from a single source. Customized test programs, state-of-the-art measurement technology, and AI-supported evaluation ensure the highest quality for your FEM calculations.
