Office Chair Backrest Testing Machine

BIFMA X5.1, EN 1335 & ANSI/BIFMA Certified for Ergonomic Compliance
Our Backrest Testing Machine rigorously evaluates the structural integrity, fatigue resistance, and load-bearing capacity of chair backs, ensuring office chairs meet global safety standards and withstand years of daily use.

Core Testing Capabilities

Multi-Axis Dynamic Testing

Static Load Test: Apply up to 2000N vertical/horizontal force to simulate user leaning or tilting.
Cyclic Fatigue Test: 100,000+ cycles at 1–10 Hz (adjustable speed) to replicate repeated stress.
Torsional Test: ±30° rotational force to assess backrest twist resistance.
Impact Resistance: Optional drop weight module (e.g., 15kg from 100mm height).

Smart Control & Precision

Force Accuracy: ±0.5% FS with dual load cells (front/rear monitoring).
Displacement Tracking: 0.01mm resolution linear encoders.
Angular Measurement: ±0.1° precision for reclining mechanisms.

Automation & Compliance

Pre-Programmed Standards: BIFMA X5.1, EN 1335, GB/T 22894, ANSI/BIFMA.
Batch Testing: Robotic arm auto-loads samples (test 15 chairs/hour).
Real-Time Alerts: Detect cracks, joint failures, or permanent deformation.

FAQ

Q: Can it test chairs with adjustable lumbar support?
A: Yes! Custom fixtures simulate real-user adjustments (manual or motorized).

Q: How to prepare samples?
A: Mount chairs as used (with base) or isolate backrests for component-level testing.

Q: What’s the maintenance schedule?
A: Lubricate rails every 500 hours; annual calibration recommended.

Q: Can it test reclining office chairs?
A: Yes – add the optional multi-axis motion module for synchronized tilt/force tests.
