It is often not possible to make use of standard solutions, especially in the area of armoured vehicles. A highly specialised set of requirements usually demands individual solutions that are specially tailored to them. The demands placed on mobility, protection, engine performance, transportability and user-friendliness often go hand in hand with problems of available installation space and high demands on strength and durability. Plenty of experience and comprehensive expertise are needed to meet all of these requirements.

The ideal solution can only be created through the perfect interaction of material knowledge, development expertise, process experience and the corresponding realisation of these in production.
