Data acquisition systems are critical for both product and package dynamic testing scenarios.
- Amgen is the world’s largest independent biotechnology firm. In August 2011, Amgen had twelve approved drugs or therapeutic biologicals.
- Their products are susceptible to damage from vibration and shock input.
The challenge
Warehouse storage and palletized shipping apply substantial compression loads on packaging. If packaging lacks structural integrity, it may collapse under pressure, leading to damage, waste, and higher costs.
Typically, they provide an overall test plan with guidance to help determine “how high”, “how many times” and “in what orientations” to drop something. Standards organizations such as ISTA (International Safe Transit Ass
Headquartered in Monterey, California, Lansmont Corporation provides state-of-the-art shock and vibration measurement and testing technology to the world’s leading companies, government laboratories and educational institutions.
X-Sight™ delivers real-time visual and measurement data during dynamic testing.
The electric hoist provides precise drop height adjustment, enabling you to set and adjust the height from which the item will be dropped, from 1 in (2.5 cm) up to 72 in (183 cm), allowing for different impact scenarios.
In view of the complexity and the transport distances, considerable efforts are made to avoid and mitigate risks associated with hazardous shock and vibration impacts along the way.
A drop tester enables product and packaging designers to examine how a product behaves when dropped from different heights, simulating various drop scenarios in a lab environment.

The drop platform, also known as a 'drop leaf', is where the product or package to be tested is placed.
It can be flat or used with specific fixtures to hold the item at varying orientations for different impact scenarios.

This includes the software and hardware used to configure test parameters, such as drop height and impact force.
You should look for a tester with precise drop mechanisms and accurate measurement instrumentation to ensure reliable results.
