Drop and Crash Tests

Whether in the nuclear, aviation & automotive or other highly sensitive industries - we are your reliable partner when it comes to the qualification of your products and systems. Our focus is on paving the way to national and international approvals, regardless of whether your applications are for civil or military purposes.

In detail, this means that our experienced teams have maintained close partnerships with customers in various industries for decades. For example, we regularly conduct experimental test campaigns for aeronautical systems, including aircraft landing gear and crash structure testing. In addition, we work with our customers to verify the safety of transport and storage containers for radioactive or other hazardous substances by means of specific design tests. This is always done in close cooperation with the responsible approval authorities. We use various modern testing facilities that can be individually adapted by our teams for your particular application. This versatile expertise enables us to offer individual solutions for a wide range of challenges.

Customer Testimonial

WheelTug® 737NG Nose Landing Gear qualification campaign (12/2019 - 12/2021)

WheelTug chose IABG as their test house because of their reputation as one of the most renowned, independent and trusted test facilities in Europe, offering tailored solutions that meet the specific needs of their customers. We were seeking a reputable partner with a proven track record of delivering excellent results, and IABG exceeded our expectations. Throughout our collaboration, IABG conducted a series of critical tests for us, including ground vibration tests, shimmy and steering tests, and drop tests. Their team consistently demonstrated professionalism and expertise, ensuring that every challenge we encountered was met with a reliable solution. Their ability to adapt and remain flexible, especially during the difficult times of COVID-19, was truly commendable. Conducting FAA tests with remote witnessing from DERs and DARs was no small task, yet IABG made it possible through their dedication and resourcefulness. We are extremely satisfied with the services they provided and look forward to continuing our partnership for future testing. Their professionalism, flexibility, and commitment to excellence make them a trusted and reliable partner for complex testing needs.
