Car seat static strength tester

1. Product Overview

The Car Seat Static Strength Tester is designed to evaluate the static load-bearing performance of automotive seats, seat fixtures, and headrests. By applying controlled forces, the tester ensures that seat components meet national and international safety standards for strength and durability. The system is widely used by automotive OEMs, seat manufacturers, and testing laboratories for quality control, R&D, and certification purposes.

2. Product Features

Measures static strength of seat backs, cushions, headrests, and other components.

Wide load measurement range (typically 40–2000 N) to simulate various static conditions.

High load accuracy (±1%) ensures reliable test results.

Load cylinder stroke up to 500 mm to cover full displacement requirements.

High-precision displacement and angular displacement measurement (accuracy ±0.01°).

High sampling frequency (around 1000 Hz) captures detailed load-displacement data for precise analysis.

Professional test software allows manual and automated control, curve feature analysis, slope calculation, curve scaling and moving, and data export to Excel.

Safety features and reliable mechanical structure ensure secure operation and consistent results.

3. Applicable Standards

GB 11550-2009 – Car seat headrest strength requirements and test methods.

GB 15083-2006 – Strength requirements and test methods for car seats, seat fixtures, and headrests.

EN-71-1 – European standard for mechanical safety requirements.

ISO 8124-1 – International standard for safety of mechanical components in seating.

5. Optional Accessories

Adjustable fixtures for different seat types and sizes

High-precision load cells for extended measurement range

Advanced data acquisition and analysis software

Protective covers and anti-vibration mounting base

Calibration kits for sensors and cylinders

6. Operation Method & Maintenance

Operation Method

Install the seat component on the tester using the appropriate fixture.

Set test parameters including load range, cylinder stroke, and displacement measurement options.

Start the test; the system applies static loads while recording displacement and force data in real time.

Analyze and export data for quality assessment, certification, or R&D purposes.

Maintenance

Regularly inspect mechanical components, cylinders, and sensors for wear or damage.

Calibrate load cells, displacement sensors, and angular measurement devices periodically.

Keep the control system, software, and electrical components clean and dry.

Check all connectors, cables, and safety devices before operation.

Lubricate moving parts as per maintenance schedule to ensure smooth operation.
