Example

Random Vibration Test

The random vibration test uses a mixture of different frequencies within a specified  frequency range to mechanically stimulate the test object. The applicable standard also defines amplitude and frequency for this test. For example, a device at the empennage of an aircraft with a turbofan engine has to be tested according to a specific curve.

Extreme environments, our tests and laboratories

How we test

All required technical characteristics are analytically defined and then metrologically verified on the object. Specific knowledge and/or development environments are necessary,e.g. for MTBF calculations, thermal analysis or mechanical stress analysis. The prototype tests for verification of specific characteristics take place in specific installations. These are, for example, shock and vibration tests on shakers; temperature and climate tests in climatic chambers; overvoltage, and EMC tests. We offer all these analytical methods and tests for our products and execute them either on our own or in cooperation with external partners.
