Acceleration Testing

Acceleration testing measures the stress of increasing gravity loads on aerospace fasteners, components and equipment. �� uses high-powered centrifuges to simulate real-world flight conditions, anticipating failures before they become disasters.

Acceleration Testing with Centrifuges

To military and industry standards, including MIL-STD-810 and RTCA DO-160

Mainly used by the aerospace industry, acceleration testing applies g-force loads to components and equipment destined for in-flight use. �� uses varying forces and speeds to recreate significant changes in gravitational force, including altitude changes, and crash scenarios.

During testing, our engineers will check for structural issues, such as material deflection, fastener failure, and hardware malfunction. For projects with more complex requirements, our labs can support operational testing conditions, including issues with flow and pressure regulation.

The �� Advantage in Acceleration Testing

��’s product qualification labs have the expertise and the capacity to deliver accurate results while reducing cost and time to market. With a platform of high-capacity, fully accredited labs, you can make sure that your results from �� are right the first time, every time.
