At Cooper Standard, we are creating Fluid Handling systems with more robust designs and increased performance through integration of digital tools and advanced analytics. Traditional processes for fluid handling systems validation typically involve extensive and costly physical testing before being approved for use in automotive applications. This advanced analysis is allowing us to test functionality of systems without parts or test equipment. Engineers can run tests with different variables before finalizing a product design, including temperatures, pressures and flow rates.
