Workshop 2
The results of this process should form the basis for three publications that deal with specific research questions, solution approaches and possible evaluations based on use cases (S3Labor or TU Laboratories; TU Pilotfabrik; at the stakeholders). Further elaboration/work on the publications takes place after the faculty meeting.

Guided tour of the EMC hall
The EMV absorber hall is a multifunctional EMV measuring and testing facility for evaluating the emission and immunity properties of devices, systems and components. The test stand offers the necessary space and technical performance at a high level in order to be able to carry out extensive measurements and tests on a wide variety of components.
TÜV AUSTRIA TIC Lab
DI Dr. Joachim Rajek presented the TIC Lab (Testing – Inspection – Certification), the Industry & Energy division of the TÜV AUSTRIA Group. The services include the areas of mechanics & materials as well as electronics & environment. A test field of 13×20 meters is available in the arsenal for testing components. A trailer hitch test was shown as an example of the mechanical testing according to the CARLOS TC (CARLOS TC/BC is the industry standard for durability testing of trailer hitches).
