Shock and Vibration Test Capabilities
TRaC have a wide range of shock and vibration test equipment that can reproduce various conditions. Vibration capabilities cover random, periodic, low or high frequency vibration. Shock testing can be carried out using one of our vertical-drop shock testing machines or electromagnetic shakers. TRaC also support a dynamic test facility dedicated to tests against requirements for telecoms and radio products.
