LMS Engineering Services

The engineering team from LMS Engineering Services helps you explore and define solutions to development related issues. Whether you require vehicle development support or a quick troubleshooting solution, LMS engineers are standby.

LMS engineers can take vehicle development responsibility, from concept to vehicle integration. We work across performance attributes including NVH, durability, ride & handling, energy efficiency, performance and safety. LMS Engineering Services can address two or more attributes simultaneously in a simulation driven multi-attribute balancing process.

Vehicle integration expertise

What makes LMS unique is its in-depth understanding of complex system behavior. While we perform component as well as subsystem engineering, our great strength lies in integrating newly developed subsystems into existing vehicles. Our multi-attribute technology brings together all attributes and ensures that the integration does not spark new problems, such as noise, durability issues...

Performance attributes

LMS is highly experienced in NVH engineering, as well as in ride & handling, either seperately or in a multi-attribute context. Today's vehicles need to be energy efficient above all, while still improving comfort and performance. At the same time, LMS offers durability solutions to achieve optimal fatigue and strength while avoiding overdesign. Bringing together all attributes and finetuning them to yield the best possible vehicle is our most important goal.

Frontloading speeds up the development process

By frontloading important design decisions through the use of simulation in the early concept stages, LMS engineers can balance key performance attributes and design the vehicle right from the start. This means that extensive late stage troubleshooting is reduced to a minimum which saves time and costs.

Combining simulation and testing

By combining test-based models of predecessor designs and competitive products with virtual models of newly designed components and subsystems, LMS can accurately assess the performance of early concepts and drive major performance related design choices quicker and more accurately.

Target setting techniques

Setting correct targets is a pre-requisite for successfully launching a competitive vehicle that reflects the predefined brand values. LMS is experienced at benchmarking and target setting and know how to translate brand definitions into functional performance criteria.

Multi-attribute balancing

Bringing together all attributes and finetuning them to yield the best possible vehicle is our most important goal. To achieve this goal, we deploy a multi-attribute balancing technology that keeps NVH, durability, ride & handling, performance and energy efficiency in check.

Technology transfer

While working on-site with our customers, LMS engineers take a very open approach in sharing know-how and best practices with the customer's engineering teams. Ultimately, our customers will gain insight into the methodologies LMS uses, as well as a deeper understanding of the LMS software and hardware tools.
