This facility allows customers to subject any components or dummies to pre-determined deceleration pulses.
The components can be accurately programmed to meet legislative standards for aircraft, child and adult seat requirements. Pulses unique to the customer can be programmed with excellent repeatability.
With an excellent re-arm and firing set-up the decelerator has the capacity to perform multiple tests within a day. High speed digital video analysis from multiple camera angles is available.
