Basics of Homologation
Description
The seminar provides a basic understanding of homologation from the perspective of a developer who is not forced into the role of a technical service assessor or a standardized OEM process model. The first hurdles, which may exist due to unfamiliar terms and a shyness towards the "legal", are overcome together and in a way that is easy to understand. The jungle of regulations is examined with a focus on the main markets of the EU, China and the USA. We discuss the various rule sets depending on the number of units, vehicle class and other parameters for the classification of the legal scenario. We then analyze the structure of a UN regulation from a developer ' s perspective and filter out what is only relevant for homologation experts. Participants are welcome to express their wishes and questions for a sample regulation they have selected. With these tools, the schematic process with its dependencies between the authority, technical service, approval holder and developer (not necessarily congruent) and their suppliers - differentiated according to overall vehicle, system and component level. The most important similarities and differences between the markets in terms of a market access strategy are briefly outlined as an advanced topic.
Who should attend?
The course is aimed at developers, project coordinators and managers, sales, vehicle manufacturers, suppliers and new OEMs.
Course Objectives
Participants understand vehicle certification/self-certification as a prerequisite for market access. They implement legal conformity in offers, specifications, specifications at vehicle, system and component level and, last but not least, in the product. They are sensitized to the distribution of roles between the approval holder, technical service, authority, development service provider if applicable and external manufacturer if applicable (timing, process, responsibility model) and concentrate on the key points of legal guidelines relevant to development, find them quickly and know sources of reference.
Course Contents
Certification / self-certification Main markets with an outline of a multiple access strategy Regulations with clarification of the EU/UN regulation mix and scope of validity of approvals Legislation monitoring and obligations to adapt to current legislation, including deadlines (in force, applicable, mandatory) Approval pyramid for component systems - complete vehicle EU large series, small series and individual approval Process flow and distribution of roles
Christian Radt
EDAG Engineering GmbH
Christian Radt began his career in the automotive industry at Opel Automobile GmbH after graduating with a degree in mechanical engineering from RWTH Aachen University and starting his career in the paper industry . He worked there for 18 years at the international development center in Rüsselsheim. With different focuses ranging from drive technology and supplier qualification for selected validation tests to GM's specification system, Mr. Radt built up a broad knowledge of complete vehicle technology. Since mid-2019, he has been utilizing his self-motivation and willingness to learn at EDAG Engineering GmbH in Fulda in the field of homologation. In the special role of an independent engineering service provider, Mr. Radt supervises very different international vehicle projects. Markets, vehicle class, number of units and role distribution vary. Customers range from traditional OEMs to new OEMs. From the assessment of concept studies for approvability to internal and external consulting for in-house complete vehicle projects. In contrast to traditional OEMs, it is often a matter of finding a creative solution for special cases or demonstrating which changes to the product could lead to approvability. This is particularly true for vehicle modifications and technological innovations. It is important to Mr. Radt to spread awareness of the legal conformity of motor vehicles within his company, as this is the only way to implement legal requirements into products in a responsible and timely manner. The basic seminar and other modules, which combine the theory and practice of homologation from an independent point of view, were developed from these tasks.
