The periodic technical inspection – innovative and digital
The periodic technical inspection – innovative and digital
The testing organisations are further developing the main inspection through innovative testing technologies and procedures and an efficient and modular test procedure. Safety, environmental compatibility and compliance with regulations in increasingly digitalised traffic are thus guaranteed today and in the future.
Future-proof periotic technical inspection:digitalised, networked and innovative
- As a recurrent on-site inspection, the periodic technical inspection (PTI) will continue to ensure the safety, environmental compatibility and compliance of increasingly digitalised traffic with highly intelligent vehicles alongside today‘s vehicles.
- In an increasingly digitalised environment, experts are carrying out – and will continue to carry out – all relevant main aspects of the examinations with expertise, customer proximity, efficiency and commitment.
- Real-time data exchange, including by means of an electronic vehicle file, ensures that all necessary data and inspection sequences for the individual vehicle are available to inspectors at all times on demand.
- Innovative inspection technologies and methods adapted to the further development of vehicle technology are integrated into the PTI.
- The simple connection and the flexible use of new operating devices, such as smartwatches and smartglasses, in combination with novel test equipment, such as vehicle targets and simulations, enable experts to choose the best inspection setup depending on the type and configuration of the vehicle.
- The PTI is characterised by an efficient and modular inspection process.
- The automatic connection of all relevant inspection equipment and test devices is efficiently realised via a uniform network on site in the inspection center (PTI-Net).
- In addition to visual and manual vehicle inspection, inspections via the electronic vehicle interface are increasingly being established. New means of inspection, such as dynamic targets or function test benches, enable modern status and function inspection of automated and connected driving systems.
- Based on the digital vehicle registration certificate, inspectors can gain real-time access into the electronic file of the vehicle. This contains all the relevant data, such as the defect history, or pending recalls.
- The required information- and test setup for a vehicle is determined automatically via the electronic vehicle interface. In combination with the electronic vehicle file, each PTI can thus be tailored to the individual requirements of a vehicle.
- All PTI results are prepared on a vehicle-specific basis, are trans mitted to the electronic vehicle file, and are available in real time, for example for revision of test procedures.
