Airbag Testing

Smart decisions in milliseconds

The name Microsys has been associated with airbag testing products since 1992.

The product range for airbag testing includes:

• SureFire Airbag Deployment System

• Microsys Cold Gas Inflation Test System

• PowerPlay Analysis & Reporting Software

SureFire Airbag Deployment System

The SureFire Airbag Deployment System is the oldest and most popular product that Microsys offers with several hundred installations since 1992. Its most common usage is for lot acceptance testing (LAT), conformance of production (COP) testing, development testing, and DV/PV testing. 
SureFire customers include most major airbag manufacturers, suppliers of instrument panels (IP), suppliers of seats and OEM's. In short, any company that produces airbags or vehicle components that interact with airbags uses SureFire to ensure the design and quality of its product.
SureFire customers benefit from the highest levels of integration and productivity in the industry.

Microsys Cold Gas Inflation Test System

The Microsys Cold Gas Airbag Inflation System is used to inflate airbags using compressed air. There are 2 primary applications for the Microsys Cold Gas System:
Application #1 - To replace an actual airbag inflator for airbag deployment
In this mode the Microsys Cold Gas System is an inexpensive, adjustable and repeatable substitute for an actual inflator. 
Airbag manufacturers use this product for airbag module development. Replacing the inflator and its variability with the Microsys Cold Gas System results in a better design and shorter design cycles. It also reduces the cost of design as the Microsys Cold Gas System consumables cost is only a fraction the cost of an inflator.
Instrument panel and seat suppliers use the Microsys Cold Gas System to reduce the cost of LAT/COP testing of their products.
Application #2 - To develop performance specifications for a cold gas inflator
In this mode the Microsys Cold Gas System is a development tool that saves both time and money.
Airbag manufacturers use this product for airbag module development. The Cold Gas System output can quickly and easily be adjusted to achieve the desired airbag module performance, then used to determine the inflator performance specifications.
