Dummies on the way to China
The worldwide demand for the PRIMUS dummy is steadily increasing. In cooperation with our sales partner Kistler, three dummies left the factory for China and Portugal for the first time last week.
The production of the PRIMUS
Know-how and precision are the key elements in the production of the biofidelic dummy "PRIMUS". The new video "CTS dummy solution: Our brand new PRIMUS-DUMMY" on the CTS-YouTube channel shows how this special dummy is produced in the in-house manufactory.

How did Tutankhamun actually die?
The ZDF has conducted an experiment on this. The role played by the PRIMUS dummy can be seen in the current episode "Tatort Antike: Rätselhafte Gewalt" (from min. 25.50).
Legal clerks of the OLG Hamm on visit
Last week about 20 legal trainees met at the crash site in Münster-Wolbeck for a training course. In addition to a tour of the crash facility and interesting technical presentations by Dr. rer. nat. Ingo Holtkötter (Managing Director Schimmelpfennig + Becke) and Dipl.-Ing. Peter Schimmelpfennig (Managing Partner CTS), all participants were able to take part live in a high-speed crash test.
Strong partner
Last week CTS received the award "PARTNER OPERATION" from the Würth company. The cooperation was especially pushed by the former CTS employee Jan Drosselmeier, who is responsible for the CTS workshop as a field service employee. CTS is pleased to have such a strong partner at its side.

PRIMUS dummies for Dekra study
Crash tests with the PRIMUS dummy were recently carried out for a study in the field of accident reconstruction. These were rear-end collisions between cars and bicycles. To secure the results, the dummies were subjected to an autopsy in the CTS laboratory in order to record the damages on the test specimen for the evaluation of the study.
