Applied Technical Services is a shock and vibration testing and analysis provider, conducting several different types of dynamics testing in our RTCA DO-160 8.0 Vibration Testing Lab.
Vibration Testing
RTCA DO-160 Section 8.0 vibration testing consists of exposing a test subject, typically an electronic device, to a series of vibrations through the use of vibration testing and monitoring equipment. The different types and intensities of vibrations are determined by the test subject’s intended function and consist of either a specific set of vibrational patterns or a simulation of vibrations that the subject could experience in its operating environment or during transit and installation. Our lab capabilities include a standard vibration test, a short duration vibration test, and a robust vibration test.
Our additional vibration testing capabilities include:
- High Force Capabilities (6,000lbf – 12,000lbf)
- High Frequency Testing (5Hz – 2000Hz)
- Electrodynamic Shakers with Temperature and Humidity Control
- Shock Response Spectrum (SRS)
- Resonance Search and Dwell
- Classic Shock, Sine, Random, and Sine on Random
