Eighteen covers, 2 screws and no collateral damage

For 25 years, Dr. Haubitz GmbH & Co. KG has been developing and manufacturing seat squabs for driver's and front & rear passenger seats.

The more adjustments a seat has, the more complex the requirements for the seat squab. The example shows an 8-function seat with electric fore-and-aft, height, tilt and seat depth adjustments. The seat system with its 18 seat squabs is firmly attached using only two screws and is crash-safe.

During the development phase, comprehensive kinematics and installation space examinations were necessary to ensure there was no way any of the parts could collide with neighbouring components. Depending on the version of the trim required, there will be an integrated stowage compartment with various places for a fire extinguisher, first aid kit or CDs.

Where the seating system is less complex (e.g. a 2-function seat), it is possible that a single seat squab will suffice.
