Field measurement

Shock and vibration environmental data recorders (SAVERs™) produce high-fidelity, quantifiable data and analytics that are used to assess and confidently characterize the potential hazards in the transport environments. The battery powered SAVERs can operate autonomously for extended periods of time, allowing the complete monitoring and measurement of cross-continental rails shipments, as well as global intermodal shipments. Their small footprints allow them to be unobtrusively attached to the transport vehicle/container, the cargo, or both simultaneously.
 

Environmental capture and reporting

Our range of SAVER environmental data recorders enable capture and reporting on environmental variables and events, such as:

  • shock and impact
  • drop
  • vibration
  • temperature and relative humidity
  • atmospheric pressure (altitude)
  • global positioning (GPS)
  • ambient light
  • tilt and orientation

Laboratory testing and simulation

Shunting and coupling – buff, draft, and jerks. All words that describe dynamic inputs – all of which pose potential damage in the rail transport supply chain. The best way to prevent transport cargo damage is to perform controlled, repeatable laboratory transport testing and simulation.

Validating your transport packaging and load securement solutions provides documented evidence of its performance. We offer a comprehensive suite of laboratory testing and simulation equipment that can be used to validate transport packaging designs and load securement solutions.

    Evaluate. Simulate. Optimize.

    Field-to-lab testing solutions

    Lansmont test systems can be used to perform common and industry standard tests, such as those defined by ASTM, ISTA, and ISO.

    When customers need to perform testing that is closer to reality, measured transport data from our SAVERs can be used to drive laboratory testing and simulation.

    For example, our testing systems include:
