Testing
Technical innovation is one of the keys to a top product. their research programmes give them
a leading position. With the help of the latest technology, their research engineers are
forever working on new developments. They make them advanced equipment such as CAD-systems,
computer-controlled test equipment and road simulators.On the other hand, their engineers
never forget that practical tests are essential to fine-tuning for best performance, which
they do for every vehicle make and model separately. From their choice of shock absorber
families and the unique system of valves, orifices and springs that have developed,
they can always offer the best damping characteristics for any specific vehiclel resulting
in optimum driveability, road-holding and safety.
It needs strict control and monitoring of both design and production when manufacturing a
high quality product. Production control begins with all purchased raw materials being
thoroughly tested to ensure they meet exacting KONI standards for precision manufacturing.
Only the very best materials are used. Modern production quality control, based upon SPC
and Taguchi techniques, ensure that strictest quality standards are met. After final assembly,
each shock absorber is 100 % dyno-tested to check that the damping forces are perfectly
matched to the specifications and to assure the highest possible quality. Before leaving
the factory each shock absorber is electronically tested.
