Our customers about us and our solutions
"We always keep a close eye on the whole vehicle dynamics software market and overall I believe CarMaker is currently the best performing system in the market.(...)"
Dr. Henning Holzmann, Head of the Department Driving Performance Simulation, General Motors Europe Engineering
"The IPG package has the advantage of open interfaces. This allows adapting it flexibly to the working environment of a Formula Student constructor. (...)"
Andreas Wagner, primarily responsible chassis constructing engineer Ka-RaceIng-Team
"We have established that this IPG test tool, CarMaker/HIL for Easy Move, has delivered time savings of 1100%.(...)"
Hakim Ben Salah, Centre Technique de Belchamp, PSA
"IPG setzte unser Konzept sehr professionell um. Man hat schnell den zentralen Mechanismus gefunden, wie man CarMaker auf das dSPACE-System portiert. Unsere Erwartungen wurden voll erfüllt."
Karl Michael Hahn, Bereich Driving Performance Simulation, General Motors Europe Engineering
"All important parameters of the vehicle that are in a large part not measurable at a real car are available with CarMaker. The models can be examined in detail and the influence on the controllers can be analyzed precisely.(...)"
Anne von Vietinghoff, scientific assistant at the Institute for Industrial Communication Technology (IIIT), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT)
"IPGKinematics is an excellent tool for chassis development and the kinematics of the axles can be integrated directly in the driving dynamics model of CarMaker. (...) It is easy to discover driving dynamics coherences and to find an optimal set up of the racecar without being a professional."
Christian Fritz, project leader HighSpeed-Karlsruhe
"We test software related to safety functions such as the ESP. It is essential to ensure that tests are of the highest possible quality; with that in mind, we have every confidence in the products and services supplied by our partner, IPG."
Laurent Marcuzzi, Centre Technique de Belchamp, PSA
"(...) We appreciate CarMaker very much because of its intuitive interface, the reliability of results and the versatility in the controller design."
Andrea Zorzutti, member of the Dynamis Team
" (...) Memorable and exciting examples in CarMaker enable me to give the students an understanding of the driving dynamics' basic relations."
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Peter Roßmanek, Fachbereich Maschinenbau, FH Stralsund
"Thanks to our test stand and - above all - thanks to the versatile CarMaker/HIL software we have been able to test around 20 percent of the developments for the active steering system of the E60 series and thus have done without a large number of driving tests with actual prototypes.(...)
Stefan Schott, Entwicklungsingenieur FIZ, BMW
"The training at IPG was very helpful and the IPG-Teams' support is always a great help and very dedicated"
Rosi Jahn, Fahrwerk-Entwicklerin im FHM-Racing-Team
"Regarding the time and cost factors, it would be all but impossible to test single devices before the completion of the racecar. The same goes for the control of the capability of the assembly, the ergonomics, the prevention of collisions and of course the test of the driving dynamics effects."
Malte Noß, verantwortlicher Modulleiter für das Fahrwerk des FT2007
" (...) The CarMaker is based on the MATLAB/Simulink software, thus it is easy to use for students and it well fits in our teaching courses. (...)"
Yuri Vershinin, Senior Lecturer at Coventry University, UK
"(...) The development effort and the extent of tests with actual prototypes required for such a sophisticated Mechatronics system was simply too high. The HIL test stand helped us save a great deal of time and money,"
Stefan Schott, Entwicklungsingenieur FIZ, BMW
"With a real car it would take two months to perform the tests. With in-the-loop testing it was reduced to two weeks. Now, with fully automated testing, it only takes two days. The results are impressive."
Jean-Paul Nivoix, chief project engineer, PSA
