Testing

Closing the loop on the engineering development process, Multimatic�s in-house test facilities can validate the performance of a component, system or entire vehicle to its target performance specifications.

Multimatic�s in-house testing capabilities include:

Material characterization
Component, subsystem and full vehicle static and dynamic stiffness measurement
Component strength assessment
Component, subsystem and vehicle modal response
Single and multi-axis fatigue
Key life
Environmental (hot, cold, humidity, dust, salt etc.)
Corrosion
Component road loads development; instrumentation and vehicle data acquisition
Proprietary four-post rig vehicle dynamics characterization and development methodology
Motorsports data acquisition and analysis
Design and build of test fixtures and test machines
Ongoing practice of development and correlation between CAE and physical test data and methods

Large surface plates support a wide range of test classes and magnitudes. Purpose built fixturing assures accurate and consistent results.	Years of testing experience provide quick and accurate data reduction in order to isolate specific or relevant performance characteristics of a part or system.
Multimatic’s well-equipped laboratories conduct tests ranging from base material characterization to component/system durability testing.
