First high-performance off-highway ECU family certified for road use under ISO 26262 by TTControl

Testing and validation processes typically account for 20 to 30 percent of development costs. The certification of TTControl's off-the-shelf electronic control units reduces these costs and enables faster time to market. The ISO 26262:2018 certification allows the use of the electronic controllers designed for rough operating conditions in road vehicle electrical and electronic (E/E) systems.

How to set up human-machine-interaction for more assisted and automated machinery? Efficiency and productivity are the main drivers of process automation of harvesters, excavators and material handling solutions. Manufacturers developing advanced off-highway machinery are increasingly demanding touch displays in growing size to create ergonomic workplaces with enhanced usability.

Australian-based haulage truck company Loadpro has more than 25 years of experience in developing “off-road” haulage trucks. Loadpro’s latest model is called X60. It is suitable for extended hauls and in applications where highway trucks and articulated trucks are not suited for. It is an attractive solution as it reduces cost and increases production in parallel. The X60 has significant benefits across various haulage applications in the mining, construction, oil and gas industries.

The latest display generation by TTControl - Vision 3 - is designed to be in the center of complex vehicle system architectures due to its extensive set of interfaces.
