SwRI Research Technologies - Drop/Impact Test

- Drop/Impact Test -

Drop/Impact Test
Drop/impact testing is performed to simulate mechanical shock that products will be exposed to in service. Either free-fall or guided shock testing is performed to provide a broad spectrum of acceleration and duration of the required shock simulation. Guided shock tables and Electrodynamic shakers are utilized on product to provide a finer tuned shock simulation. Mechanical shocks simulated include transportation, product handling, impact, pyrotechnic, and other high accelerations environments.
