In Ottobrunn, IABG operates Europe's only manufacturer-independent flat track tyre test bench. It permits high-level precision tyre measurements under stationary and dynamic operating conditions and thus optimises the model quality of tyre and vehicle simulation models. The test bench is located in a separate, enclosed test hall (including office, assembly zone and storage rooms) to ensure absolute confidentiality for our customers.
