MESSRING offers flexible sled solutions for acceleration and deceleration tests. The CIS system enables precise acceleration sled tests, while the HydroBrake system allows for controlled deceleration tests. Both systems deliver reproducible, non-destructive results for the efficient analysis of vehicle components.
MESSRING sled test facilities enable precise acceleration and deceleration tests to be carried out in a non-destructive manner. The facilities can be used to test seat belts, car seats, child seats, aircraft seats, and batteries under controlled conditions.

Sled Systems
Deceleration Sled Testing
The integration of the MESSRING HydroBrake into an existing crash facility creates a powerful platform for high‑precision deceleration sled testing. Optional equipment such as various sled test fixtures, M=SLED Modular, and M=BRAKE increases system versatility and supports a wide range of test requirements.
Acceleration Sled Testing
MESSRING CIS – The Compact Impact Sled for fast, non‑destructive component testing, available as a turnkey system with DAQ, lighting, cameras, and more. Designed for efficient testing of seats, belts, child seats, batteries, and airbags, the CIS combines a minimal footprint with quick installation and high test throughput.
Sled Test Fixtures
Depending on the test requirements, different sled test fixtures are available. These range from simple modules for standard tests to complex for special components or vehicle parts. The sled test fixtures comply with international standards such as UN ECE R, FMVSS, or ADAC, ensuring that tests can be carried out reliably, reproducibly, and in accordance with standards.
