The interior noise of a vehicle has a significant impact on the customer experience. Any noise outside the norm can raise concerns and discredit the company’s reputation. Engineers have a solid understanding of the noise requirements for internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, but electric vehicles (EV) require new standards. As EVs do not have an engine that makes noise, many normal vehicle disturbances are now audible to the passenger.
Drop Shock Testing for Products and Packaging
Many products will experience shock vibration during shipping and handling or in use. These shocks may be infrequent, such as an accidental drop or repetitive, as with transportation over rough road conditions. Vibration test engineers use shock testing to simulate these conditions in the lab and confirm the structural integrity of the device.
Types of Vibration Control
Vibration Research designs and manufactures leading edge vibration control systems for all brands of electrodynamic and servohydraulic shakers, as well as portable dynamic signal analyzers. Vibration control systems include hardware vibration controllers and the vibration control software, providing a multi-point control of complex structures, all with an intuitive user interface and easy setup.

How to choose the right packaging testing methods – Shock Testing
If you’re designing the packaging for a new product or a rebranding, you probably want to know how safe your goods will be and how customers will react to your packaging before you invest in a final design. With packaging testing, you can both satisfy consumer sentiment and choose the right packaging design for your product from the safety point of view.
Vibration Resistance of Electrical Equipment
Shock and vibration resistance gives information concerning the robustness of the mechanical design of a device. The methods for evaluating the vibration resistance are defined in IEC 60068-2-6 and IEC 60068- 2-64. Electrical and electronic equipment are exposed to vibration in many applications and must withstand this without any degeneration, or even failure, in their function. Therefore, manufacturers of electrical and electronic devices put a great deal of effort into ensuring their instruments are prepared for such applications.
