Qualification Testing on Aerospace Connectors

DES recently performed qualification testing on aerospace connectors which involved combined temperature and sinusoidal vibration testing, random vibration testing and shock testing. Combined temperature and sinusoidal vibration tests were performed per EIA 364-28F. EIA 364-28F required test conditions of 10-2000 Hz, 20G maximum acceleration sweeps at temperatures of -54°C and 200°C over the course of 4 …

Package Testing Using Combined Temperature & Vibration

Nowadays global markets and expedited shipping methods expose packages to less than ideal conditions during the transport process. International Safe Transit Association (ISTA), International Air Transport Association (IATA), International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) all contain protocols and requirements used to evaluate product package design. Some of these …
