A new strategic collaboration brings together industry and academia in the name of innovation and performance. TecSA, a leading Italian company in brake system testing, has established a partnership with Dynamis PRC<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, the official racing team of the Politecnico di Milano<\/strong> that competes in international Formula Student<\/strong><\/a> events.<\/p>\n

At the heart of this alliance is the TecSA R&D laboratory<\/strong>, a flagship facility of the company. This partnership offers the Politecnico di Milano\u2019s racing team the opportunity to conduct advanced testing and applied research projects in the field of braking systems, with the direct support of TecSA\u2019s technical experts.<\/p>\n

A Cutting-Edge Lab to Train the Engineers of Tomorrow<\/span><\/h3>\n

This is not merely a technical sponsorship, but an active and strategic collaboration. Thanks to the availability of TecSA R&D\u2019s testing, measurement, and simulation infrastructure<\/strong>, Dynamis PRC<\/em> students can carry out real-world analyses, bench experiments, and system validations<\/strong> on their braking components.<\/p>\n

In a highly competitive context like Formula Student, where every millisecond counts and every component can make the difference, such activities represent a tangible advantage from both a technical and educational perspective.<\/p>\n

The TecSA R&D lab is equipped with brake dynamometers, high-frequency data acquisition systems, advanced sensors, and simulation software<\/strong>, tools that enable comparative testing, friction material wear analysis, braking parameter optimization, and the validation of innovative solutions in controlled conditions.<\/p>\n

In addition, TecSA\u2019s engineering team brings valuable expertise, offering students high-level feedback and the opportunity to collaborate with seasoned industry professionals.<\/p>\n

The Value of the Partnership for Dynamis PRC \u2013 PoliMI<\/span><\/h3>\n

Dynamis PRC<\/em> is one of the most successful university racing teams in Europe. With over 100 students participating each year<\/strong> from more than ten different academic programs, the team is structured into specialized engineering departments (aerodynamics, powertrain, electronics, chassis, autonomous driving, etc.) and competes internationally in the Formula Student Electric<\/em><\/a> and Driverless<\/em><\/a> categories.<\/p>\n

Over the years, Dynamis PRC<\/em> has achieved more than 80 podium finishes across multiple categories, ranking as the top Italian team and among the world\u2019s top 30 in the Electric class.<\/p>\n

Since 2022, the team has also been active in the development of autonomous race cars, marking another step forward in innovation.<\/p>\n

The partnership with TecSA plays a crucial technical role in the team\u2019s vehicle development efforts. Often overshadowed by other systems, braking is actually a fundamental element for both performance and safety<\/strong>, offering significant room for improvement in terms of design and calibration.<\/p>\n

Thanks to TecSA\u2019s contribution, Dynamis PRC<\/em> can:<\/p>\n
