5.3 Discussion static versus dynamic testing

With a presentation (TFAC 04-08) Mr Westphäling explained the reasons why according to his opinion a static testing of coupling devices should not be permitted.

Mr Rehm and Mr Pagliarani expressed the opinion that a static testing should be permitted for the “CUNA-Couplings” and the drawbar up to 40 km/h max. speed as these devices are tested statically for decades in Europe and no failures or accidents are known so far.

Mr Gunneriusson supported the opinion of Mr Westphäling.

After a detailed discussion, the majority of the participant could accept the position of Mr Rehm and Mr Pagliarani. It was decided that the IWG R 55 should discuss this topic during one of their next meetings.
