Akebono Brake Corporation, a global supplier of foundation brakes and brake friction materials for automotive OEM customers such as Audi, Chrysler, General Motors, Honda, Toyota, and many more, wanted to update their mid-height HIL system for testing ECU brake software. Using LabVIEW and a real-time cDAQ system, Wineman Technology worked with Akebono to deliver an upgraded hybrid HIL tester capable of mechanical brake simulation. We also created a new full-height tester for running 24/7 durability testing on three electric parking brake systems simultaneously. Both systems have ECUs that communicate through the CAN bus, so the engineers at Akebono use Wineman Technology’s CANalytics CAN interface software for quick and easy database configuration, signal monitoring, and other functionality.
Electronic parking brakes take up less space and automatically disengage when driving.
Real-time cDAQ was chosen for its high-performance features and flexibility.
