Industrializing component characterization for virtual NVH development: Automated component model extraction (AutoCMX)

September 22, 2026

Simcenter Testlab 2606 introduces Automated Component Model Extraction (AutoCMX), an integrated hardware and software solution that automatically extracts ISO 20270-compliant component models for virtual NVH development. By automating blocked-force characterization and model generation, AutoCMX transforms component characterization from a slow, expert-driven process into a fast, repeatable workflow that produces virtual-prototype-ready models in minutes rather than days.
