MSLL enhances adaptive capabilities for Family 8 pretensioners (SPR8 & ACR8). It offers a wider selection of load profiles than any known product. Its higher flexibility allows adapting the belt load to various occupant sizes (ranging from 6 year old child up to heavy adults). In the field further improvements can be expected for elderly people, in high severity crashes and for automated driving scenarios.

Further Technical Details

• In Combination with reasonable occupant classification belt forces can be better tuned for individual occupants
• Enlarged range of load levels (4 levels) enables new potentials for adjusting the belt force according to crash severity
• Improved adaptivity during crash by two independend switching points, and the ability to switch up for unexpected increase of crash severity
• Higher flexibility for alternative seating positions which are required for new interior concepts
