Flying Ballast Impact Stimulation
Contributing to the validation/type approval of protective products or coatings by checking their resistance to flying ballast.
Tests objectives
- Check the ability of a material to withstand flying ballast impact
- Tests with different degrees of impact force
- Tests at different temperatures
Tests facilities
- Pneumatic test bench capable of projecting ballast at different speeds
- Climatic chamber to prepare samples for testing at different temperatures
- Pressure sensor to set impact force
- Speed recorder to check impact speeds up to over 300 km/h
Testing norms
