Vehicle Optimisation

We offer engineering solutions for individual product optimization at the level of the complete vehicle.

Our goal is to help you meet the ever-changing challenges of your product through optimization.

Individual vehicle optimization from a single source

Along the entire value chain, we provide design and engineering expertise for optimization at the component, module and vehicle levels. We accompany the individual optimizations from the analysis through the first design to the verification of the component requirements and the series introduction.

In doing so, we cover the classic areas around the topics of weight reduction, cost reduction, and quality optimization. Optimization of the design topology is also part of our services.

We cover the entire range of engineering services, including the interface function to all adjacent areas, documentation and data preparation as well as reporting, supplier coordination and technical support in purchasing negotiations.

From the concept stage to ongoing vehicle development and from current production to aftermarket products. Optimize your current and future products with RLE. We support you with:

Weight, cost and quality optimization
Topology Optimization
Lightweight construction
Alternative materials
Feasibility studies
Interface function
Supplier coordination
Integration of Design Lessons Learned

As mobility experts, we distinguish ourselves not only through our extensive range of products and services, but also through our comprehensive and customized optimization expertise.

At this point, I would like to quote Henry Ford, who aptly said, “It’s not through inventions but through improvements that fortunes are made.” Contact us today and let us work together to improve your products!

Technical Unit Leader Vehicle Optimisation

Our RLE Mobility portfolio for vehicle optimization:

We keep an eye on the weight

Lightweight construction as substitution or taskforce with alternative materials, e.g. aluminum casting, composites, etc.
Development of hybrid structural inserts and NVH noise insulation within the project The Mobility Alliance

We optimize your costs

Idea generation in workshops, production line inspections and vehicle tests
Idea management through to production deployment using customer systems

We ensure optimal quality

Leverage customer quality database tools.
Support on-site customer/dealer analysis
Develop alternative designs by applying “lessons learned”.

Our topology optimization approach

Creation of design, space and reduced topology optimization models using CATIA and Altair
Load case management for static and dynamic shell stiffness, crash, etc.
Automated solver deck generation with Synera and topology optimization in Altair

We take care of the interface functions

Exchange of information with all the necessary departments in order to ensure the requirements of the components in terms of performance, manufacturability and readiness for series production.
