Pneumatic Equipment
The laboratory is equipped with advanced testing equipment such as vibration and shock test benches, sand/dust and rain chambers, a 500T bearing system, MTS multi-channel fatigue test systems, over 2000 channels of strain acquisition systems, and non-destructive testing equipment. Our testing capabilities cover environmental adaptability, reliability assessment, vibration characteristics, static load fatigue, and life assessment, providing one-stop technical services.
Pneumatic equipment constitutes the pneumatic system of rail vehicles, supporting functions such as braking, line control, and passenger services. As the vehicle operates, it is subjected to complex stress loads, including mechanical stresses like vibration and shock, and environmental factors like salt spray, acid gas, and sand/dust/rain in different regions. Sufficient data demonstration and testing are required during design, development, mass production, and practical application. The laboratory has configured and built complete testing equipment according to domestic and industry standards, possessing comprehensive assessment capabilities from environmental to performance tests. We can also simulate and assess the actual working conditions of the tested products in the laboratory to verify their operational reliability and ensure their performance meets standard requirements.
