Shock and vibration tests

Testing mechanical loads

Transportation, road use, rail transport or aviation - components are constantly exposed to impacts, vibrations and shocks. With our tests, we simulate these loads precisely and in accordance with standards in order to reliably ensure the mechanical stability of your products.

Shock and vibration tests for robust products

Resilience is the basis for safety and quality

Only mechanically robust components fulfill their function in the long term. PTS-Prüftechnik offers shock and vibration tests in accordance with international standards and OEM specifications. Whether individual components, modules or complete systems - our test benches enable realistic load tests, also in combination with climate and temperature profiles.
