The Challenge

The US Army needed outside expertise in developing a laboratory test system that can replicate the multiple vertical shocks and impact energy associated with the dynamic response that results from na explosion underneath a ground vehicle.


The Solution

Lansmont designed the Vertical Impact Test System (VITS), called Crew Seating Blast Effects Simulator (CSBES) by the Army Research Lab. The system is capable of generating multiple programmable impact events. For the initial shock event, the stationary table is impacted by a 1,200 lb. bullet fired by a pneumatic piston. This creates enough energy to drive the shock table with a 650 lb. test dummy at a velocity of 7 meters per second.

To simulate the dynamic conditions of a blast response, the VITS generates three programmed impacts per event:

  • Initial impact to the feet area
  • Main shock event to table
  • Ensuing “after shock” coming from vehicle’s landing, known as “slam down”

Vibration Test Systems are used to evaluate products and packages for design purposes and simulate the vibration effects of product transportation. Lansmont’s Vibration Test Systems are easy to use and perform a wide range of vibration testing in accordance with government, industry and corporate specifications.


  • Model 1000

The Model 1000 Vibration Test System is designed to test small and lightweight objects and can perform a wide range of testing specifications. Both sinusoidal vibration tests and random vibration tests are possible for product and package testing. The Model 1000 performs testing per ASTM, ISTA, ISO and other common industry test specifications


  • Model 1800

The Model 1800 Vibration Test System will perform a wide range of testing applications. The system runs resonance search and fixed-frequency dwell tests for product evaluation. The Model 1800 is also commonly used for distribution simulation, referencing ASTM, ISTA, ISO and other common industry test specifications, as well as test profiles created from SAVER data.


  • Model 6200

The Model 6200 Vibration Test System has a longer stroke actuator which makes the system design more versatile for performing low frequency, high energy vibration test profiles. The actuator force and stroke capabilities make the Model 6200 the ideal vibration system for Field-to-Lab test protocols. The Model 6200 is also used to perform testing per ASTM, ISTA, ISO and other common industry test specifications.


  • Model 7000

The Model 7000 Vibration Test System has similar performance to the Model 1800 with the advantage of being able to accommodate heavier payloads. The system runs resonance search and fixed-frequency dwell tests for product evaluation and is also used for distribution simulation per ASTM, ISTA, ISO and other common industry test specifications. The system will also run test profiles created from SAVER data


  • Model 10000

The Model 10000 Vibration Test System is designed for testing large, heavy payloads. The actuator force and large table options make the Model 10000 the ideal vibration system for testing unit loads and large crated products. The Model 10000 performs testing per ASTM, ISTA, ISO and other common industry test specifications. The system will also run test profiles created from SAVER data.


  • Model 28000

The Model 28000 Vibration Test System is our most versatile test platform. The system can be outfitted with large components for testing bulky and heavy payloads. The Model 28000 can also be configured with high-performance components for testing to 500 Hz. or higher.


  • Model 65000

The Model 65000 Vibration Test System is the largest force system in our line of vibration equipment. Designed for testing very large payloads, the Model 65000 can be outfitted with the large test platforms that we have to offer, measuring up to 10 feet (3 m) in length
