Overview

The powerful brake robot CB2100 is characterized by a rugged construction and the versatility of possible applications in everyday test operations. In addition to the control variables pedal position and pedal force, the vehicle brake pressure and vehicle deceleration can also be controlled. Switching between the four control modes is of course possible also within a test run. Numerous interfaces facilitate the integration of sensors. As for all VEHICO robots we attached great importance to a short setup time and an intuitional operation. With our brake robot we offer the prerequisites for objective brake testing.

The VEHICO Brake Robot offers the following features

• strong and fast
The VEHICO Brake Robot CB2100 can provide a force of up to 2000N on the brake pedal. Besides the high forces, a velocity of up to 120cm/s can be achieved. The high velocity capabilities are particularly important to trigger HBA (hydraulic brake assist) systems, because these systems are activated only by the exceeding of a pressure gradient.

• versatile
The robot comes with four control modes: pedal position, pedal force, brake pressure and vehicle deceleration. Switching between the four control modes is of course possible also within a test run.

• safe
The brake pedal can be overridden manually at any time. The driver always has the opportunity to intervene and bring the vehicle to a safe stop in case of imminent danger.

• intuitive
For many years VEHICO successfully uses an intuitive scripting language with which all possible profiles can be freely programmed by simple commands and associated parameters.

• adaptive
The brake robot can be installed with little time spent in almost every standard car.

• unique
With its impressive performance and its outstanding cost/performance ratio the brake robot CB2100 is virtually unrivaled on the driving robot market.

• OBD2 Interface
Likewise all robots the VEHICO brake robot is equipped with an OBD2 interface. With this you are conveniently enabled to use the cars own velocity signal as trigger signal for brake tests and can abandon an external sensor.

• combinable with all VEHICO steering and gas pedal robots
The brake robot is combinable with all VEHICO steering and gas pedal robots. All driving robots can be operated together from one common webinterface, they can run synchronized between each other and the logged data is merged.

Other features

• connect any sensors on freely configurable CAN interface with dbc file import
• different CAN signals may be computed with each other, e.g. to calculate a TTC (time to collision) value out of distance and speed
• decoupling from the automotive electrical system possible
• system controller has its own UPS
• robust, passively cooled microcontroller technology
• no software installation required
• for vehicles with manual and automatic transmission
driver seat is largely unaffected by the installation of the robot
