Shock Testing
In product qualification programs, shock testing is used to measure the impact of sudden acceleration caused by explosion, drop, or collision. Our laboratories perform shock testing to prepare products for harsh industrial, transportation and military environments.
Element?s team of experts perform shock testing to a variety of industrial and military standards, including RTCA DO-160, MIL-STD-810, DEF STAN 00-35, and EN 60068. Our engineers can also support complex or custom projects by assisting with protocol development or specification selection.
Some of the methods that we routinely test include:
- Operational shock and crash safety
- Gunfire simulation
- Half sine (shock pulse) testing
- Decaying sine wave testing
- Bump/shock testing
- Shock & impulse testing
- Drop testing
- Impact testing
For projects that require specialized set-ups, our experts can assist in creating a test plan that will best suit your needs.
