Homologation
Approval from the competent authorities is mandatory for the modification or manufacture of a vehicle. We manage this entire process with our authorised in-house engineers.
What is automotive homologation?
Automotive homologation (type approval) is the certification process confirming that vehicles, or a particular component, meet the requirements set by the various statutory regulatory bodies.
Approval from the competent authorities is mandatory for the modification or manufacture of a vehicle. In applications such as an additional axle, chassis modification or truck-to-tractor conversion, the vehicle goes through this process.
How does the homologation process work?
All of these steps are carried out by our authorised in-house engineers.
Preliminary development tests
On the prototypes we design, we carry out our preliminary tests with our own test equipment and under the supervision of our specialist engineers, just as a vehicle manufacturer would.
Authorised technical service tests
Together with technical services authorised by the Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology of the Republic of Türkiye, the technical units affected by the modification are tested and the test reports are obtained.
Engineering documentation and TSE application
The engineering documentation (project file) for the modified vehicle is prepared and an application for certification is submitted to TSE.
TSE, TÜV-SÜD, VCA and SGS approvals.
