Manufacturers, OEMs, and suppliers must perform shock and vibration testing to protect equipment and users from potentially dangerous product or component failures by properly testing products before market entry. Not only does testing prove compliance, but it also helps eliminate early generation failures by ensuring performance before sales in markets, extending a product’s market shelf-life, and increasing a manufacturer’s bottom line.
We help you verify the hardiness of your products and equipment to regulatory, industry, and military standards for faster market access. By combining multiple shock and vibration testing methodologies, we give you a complete picture of the structural design, including deficiencies and areas of non-compliance.
With a custom shock and vibration testing plan, we help you take your product from design to end-use and ensure performance for the entire product lifecycle. Manufacturers trust us to help them bring high-quality, compliant products to market efficiently and cost-effectively.

What is Shock Testing?
Shock testing is a process used to evaluate the ability of products to withstand mechanical shocks, such as those that occur during transport or use. Shock testing involves exposing products to sudden, high-intensity forces to simulate the effects of real-world impacts.
During shock testing, products are subjected to a series of controlled impacts that vary in intensity and direction. These impacts can be delivered in different ways, such as drop tests or mechanical impacts, depending on the product being tested.
Shock testing is used to identify weaknesses in products and to ensure that they meet safety standards. It is commonly used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and electronics, where products need to withstand harsh conditions.
What is Vibration Testing?
Vibration testing is a process used to evaluate the ability of products to withstand mechanical vibrations, such as those that occur during transport or use. Vibration testing involves exposing products to controlled vibrations to simulate the effects of real-world conditions.
During vibration testing, products are subjected to a range of frequencies and amplitudes of vibration, which can be adjusted to simulate different types of vibration, such as random or sinusoidal vibrations. The testing process is designed to identify weaknesses in products and to ensure that they meet safety and performance standards.
Vibration testing is commonly used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and electronics, where products need to withstand vibration during use. It is also used in product development to identify design flaws and to optimize product performance.
