From the Field | Remote Vehicle Control for Commercial Vehicles on Roller Test Benches for Daimler Truck AG

Softing Automotive offers a universal vehicle remote control system for the driverless operation of commercial vehicles of all drive types on roller test benches based on cost-effective industrial automation technology components. The concept was most recently implemented at the Daimler Truck plant in Wörth on the Road to Rig (R2R) commercial vehicle all-wheel drive chassis dynamometer. You can find out more about this use case in this article.

Innovative technologies in the automotive industry require adaptation of vehicle architecture and diagnostic processes. Softing Automotive offers a toolchain based on diagnostic standards to meet market trends and reduce complexity.

Episode 13 "Modern Workshop Tester" | Ed & Ted – Get it Done!

The increasing number of software functions and variants in vehicles leads to increased complexity over the entire vehicle life cycle. Software updates are becoming increasingly frequent and relevant, even after the vehicle has been delivered, in order to optimize functions, rectify faults or activate new features. These must be carried out efficiently and without errors. At the same time, diagnostic processes are becoming increasingly demanding due to the large amount of data and interfaces. In particular, they must reliably map the high variance in the vehicle configuration. Softing TDX offers exactly the right tool support for a modern diagnostic tester in aftersales.

From the Field | Solution for Decoupling the Device Under Test and Test Bench Automation

Softing Automotive offers a solution for decoupling the DUT from the test bench automation on the hardware and software side, which only requires a small amount of OEM-specific knowledge from the manufacturer of the automation system and therefore significantly simplifies and accelerates the preparation and execution of the test process. A test bench interface, which is connected between the automation and the device under test (DUT), makes this feasible and also enables the testing of several test objects with a corresponding front end.

High-speed Flashing with Ed & Ted – Get it Done!

Software-defined vehicles (SDV) and new E/E architectures place high demands on diagnostics, vehicle access and data management. The need for software updates is increasing, as is the amount of data that needs to be transferred. In the near future, around 50 GB of data per vehicle type and model series will have to be stored accordingly. Conventional methods are often too slow and unreliable here. The Smart Vehicle Interface Softing SVI is a high-performance platform for modern ECU programming with continuous data supply. The solution combines the advantages of the high-speed wireless connection of a smart device with the classic diagnostic functions of a high-end vehicle communication interface (VCI) and thus enables fast, reliable and flexible flash programming of large amounts of data.

New High-Speed Interface "Softing SVI" for Vehicle Communication in the Gigabit Range

We are pleased to present the new Smart Vehicle Interface ‘Softing SVI’ – a high-performance solution for modern ECU programming with continuous data supply. The Softing SVI combines the advantages of the high-speed wireless connection of a Smart Device with the classic diagnostic functions of a high-end Vehicle Communication Interface (VCI) and an SSD in a compact housing. It thus enables fast, reliable and flexible flash programming of substantial amounts of data and is therefore the solution for the high requirements of software-defined vehicles (SDV).
