The chair of the TF-RUCC presented the status report (document GTR9-4-07e) with updated certification corridors (action items A-3-02 and A-3-04): After further FlexPLI design optimizations, three master legs were prepared to redefine the certification corridors with respect to the quasi-static certification tests (tibia, knee and femur) as well as the dynamic certification tests (pendulum test and inverse test). All future FlexPLI’s (orders on master leg level) will now be able to pass both dynamic certification tests. TF-RUCC proposed new certification corridors which were accepted by the IG GTR9-PH2. The updated certification corridors should now be considered as the final ones.

Humanetics presented their certification test results with two FlexPLI master legs (document GTR9-4-09). The results are well in line with the results of other test houses (JARI, BASt and Bertrandt). Nevertheless, Humanetics are concerned that the narrow corridor range for the tibia 4 sensor could create problems related to the durability issue. The chair proposed that the test houses involved in the round robin tests should inform the group if any durability problems etc. will be observed. FlexPLI dynamic test instructions (document GTR9-4-22e) will be provided by BASt with the FlexPLI master legs in addition to the revised manual that will be submitted by Humanetics in October 2012 (see also action item A-2-12).

Action item A-3-03 was not discussed because it was part of TF-RUCC working items. Thus, action items A-3-02, A-3-03 and A-3-04 were closed.
