Static Testing

A comprehensive array of test equipment allows us to perform almost any conceivable experiment in a controlled manner.  Our 200,000lb instrumented hydraulic test bed is large enough to fit full-size SUV’s, while smaller rams, load cells, and instrumentation can be configured to other needs.

Common Static Experiments:

• Air Bag Deployment
• Roll Bar Deployment
• Door Latch Function
• Seat Back Yield Force
• Suspension Damage Energy
• Seat Belt Tensioner Deployment
• Inverted Vehicle / Surrogate Occupant Restraint Effectiveness
• Roof Crush Force
• Sensor System Evaluation
