Armrest Strength Testing Machine

Product Overview

This machine is suitable for various chairs with armrests, such as office chairs and gaming chairs. Generally, the office chair is fixed on the testing platform, and mechanical devices such as pneumatic cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric actuators are used to apply forces of different directions and magnitudes to the armrests. It simulates various actions of a person using the armrests of the chair, such as pressing, pushing, pulling, and leaning. The machine is equipped with corresponding sensors and control systems to accurately measure and record parameters such as deformation, displacement, and force experienced by the armrests during the testing process.

Product Application:

This machine is suitable for various chairs with armrests, such as office chairs and gaming chairs. Typically, the office chair is fixed on the testing platform, and mechanical devices like pneumatic cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric actuators are used to apply forces in different directions and magnitudes on the armrests. It simulates real-life usage scenarios, including pressing, pushing, pulling, and leaning. Equipped with sensors and a control system, it accurately measures and records parameters such as deformation, displacement, and force applied to the armrests during testing.
