Performance:
Performance tests are useful to assess friction behavior, brake output, or stopping distance characteristics under varying speed, pressure, vehicle loading, brake system conditions, deceleration, temperature, braking history, and environmental conditions. Other vehicle components or sub-systems including tire, transmission, engine cooling, fuel economy and suspension. Several protocols are available as part of original equipment or aftermarket programs.
- Client Directed or Developmental Procedures: Performance characterization protocols developed and executed in cooperation with clients to address specific testing needs. LINK can follow either an existing documented test protocol or design or develop a test plan to meet customer test objectives. Helicopter rotor brake, fighter aircraft brake systems, specialty aircraft brake output and peak torque holding capacity are among the test methods conducted by LINK.
NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness):
Test method development for NVH investigations are a continuously evolving activity for the transportation community worldwide. LINK can work directly with customer representatives to design an instrumentation, test execution and data analysis program tailored to meet client requirements.
Wear and Durability:
Wear and durability testing methods are used to simulate extended or extreme service conditions. Repeatable testing protocols, on public roads, test track or in the laboratory, provide an effective means to investigate the influence of temperature, speed, distance traveled or loading on the specific wear of aircraft components.
- Client Directed or Developmental Procedures: Testing conducted to address specific client aircraft and rail testing requirements.
Certification and Type Approval:
Successful completion of certification and type approval testing is required for compliance demonstration to government or other regulatory agencies during the last phase of product development and prior to product launch. LINK can perform certification and type approval testing for aircraft and rail systems and components.
Component and Bench:
Link can apply relevant design and testing expertise to evaluate components or sub-systems using a controlled laboratory environment and the ProLink suite of control and acquisition software configured to create custom test systems as well as existing designs.
- FAA and others: Industry recognized test specifications for aircraft systems
- Client Directed or Developmental Procedures: Laboratory testing using our in-house fixturing and test set-up expertise to create customized test plans.
Physical Properties:
Measurement and analysis performed on sample-level test materials such as friction materials, rotors, drums, actuators, fluids, etc.
- ASTM and others: Compressibility, shear strength, natural frequency and other specifications developed to measure physical characteristics.
- Client Directed or Developmental Procedures: Client specific or internally designed protocols based on variants of the above listed methodologies.
