Intrusion Rig – Quasi-Static High Load Testing

Our in-house developed velocity-controlled servo-hydraulic intrusion rig is designed for quasi-static high-load intrusion tests, meeting legal requirements such as MVSS214 and 216(A). This versatile system can also perform other overload tests and can be adapted with specific loading bodies upon customer request.

Features

• Guided trolley, velocity-controlled for precise movement
• Load capacity: up to 200 kN
• Maximum stroke: 700 mm
• Velocity range: 0.5 to 100 mm/sec
• Customizable loading bodies for specific test scenarios

Applications

Automotive Safety: Side impact and roof crush resistance
Structural Integrity Testing: Panels, frames, and assemblies under controlled intrusion
Component Overload Testing: Validation of strength and deformation behavior

Example of reference Methods

• MVSS 214 - 216a – Roof Crush Resistance
• SAE J211 – Instrumentation for Impact Tests
