HYGE Sets the World Standard in Crash Simulation Systems

Cost-effective, flexible solutions for all your dynamic shock testing needs

HYGETM , the recognized leader in the field of dynamic shock testing technology, has been engineering, manufacturing, and installing HYGETM Crash Simulation Systems for customers around the world for more than 55 years. HYGETM uses proven technology to provide extremely repeatable and reproducible acceleration pulses, enabling accurate simulation and modeling of crash conditions. HYGETM offers a number of distinct advantages to optimize crash test programs and provide a competitive edge for in-house and independent testing facilities. FlexibilityHYGETM is the one system to meet virtually all crash test requirements. Its design provides a wide test window, enabling a broad range of tests to be performed on components and entire vehicles. The HYGETM provides the payload necessary for intrusion and side impact testing, as well as an integrated airbag testing system. Repeatability – Better than 2%, even after 55 years and over 50,000 firings. Reproducibility – Pulses can be very accurately reproduced on different HYGETM systems, enabling sharing of test programs and results between component suppliers and OEM’s. Proven Performance – Capable of matching actual crash pulses with high accuracy. Has universal acceptance – HYGETM systems are used by virtually all of the world’sautomobile manufacturers and they meet government auto safety testing standards. Simplicity – Mechanical design features just two moving parts for reliability and easy maintenance. Cost-effectivenessHYGETM simple design and minimal preventative maintenance requirements keep operating costs low. In addition, its flexibility and versatility can enhance revenues for independent testing facilities.

What Crash Simulation Systems can HYGE employ?


HYGE systems are in active use worldwide for a variety of automotive and aircraft safety testing applications. Some typical HYGE Crash Simulation System applications include the following:


• Testing of airbag systems, including firing circuits, sensors, squibs, and airbag units
• Side-Impact Testing – Approved for US and European side impact requirements
• Testing auto seat belts, including belt design, webbing, hardware, and anchors
• Crash Simulation Systems to test Side airbags
• Crash Simulation Systems for testing sting auto interior parts, such as dashboards, bolsters, and headliner trim
• Biodynamic testing of human subjects to determine biological limits and effects of shock
• Used as a velocity source for barrier auto crash testing. This involves testing components such as bumper systems and front and rear panels
• Shock testing of automotive components sold as separate items, such as stereos and cellular telephones
Crash Simulation System Testing of child restraint seats and booster seats
• Shock testing of automobile electronic control modules
• Testing of aircraft seats, seat belts, and components
• Crash Simulation Systems for Shock testing of military and space systems and components
