Vibration Testing

Electro-dynamic vibration testing systems

• Slip plates allowing for 3-axis independent testing 
• High displacement
• Up to 40,000 force pounds of thrust 
• Multiple response channels 

Hydraulic and mechanical vibration testing systems 

Ideal for low frequency, high displacement testing such as:

• Transportation vibration on fully loaded pallets 
• All ISTA requirements for shock and vibration including: Vertical-linear, random with and without top loads, fixed-displacement  
• Seismic Qualification 
• Office Vibration on Rack mount Telecom equipment. (GR-487 and 63-CORE) 

Shock Testing 

Shock, specifically, refers to sudden mechanical or physical acceleration or deceleration due to an impact, explosion or drop. It is measured by an accelerometer in the laboratory with engineers using vibration and shock testing systems to simulate transportation and service platform environments. Read More

Combined Temperature and Vibration

By combining the effects of extreme temperature conditions and vibration patterns simultaneously, Element's environmental test experts are able to evaluate results faster with labs featuring a wide variety of electro-dynamic, seismic and hydraulic vibration test systems that can be paired with a thermal chamber for combined temperature and vibration testing.

Bounce Testing 

We assist manufacturers with shock and vibration tests that replicate stresses induced during transportation of a secured cargo, and bounce testing which simulates an environment of loose cargo in wheeled vehicle transit.

Seismic Simulation 

Seismic testing is carried out to ensure that safety critical equipment continues to perform during and after a seismic event. Seismic testing is designed to assess the performance of essential non-structural systems by subjecting them to strong ground shaking such as that resulting from earthquakes or nearby railways, airports, power plants and other possible causes of movement or vibrations.
