m+p international provides a highly successful solution for Force Limited Vibration Testing (FLVT) of any space payload.

Space payloads are tested on the ground to ensure they are mission ready after launch. Conventional vibration testing using response accelerometers and hard mounting to a shaker can overtest the payload resulting in damage or destruction of expensive technological or scientific equipment.

That is why nowadays FLVT is often performed on space payloads. By automatically notching the acceleration at a test item's resonances, by measuring and limiting the reaction force between the test item and the shaker table, overtesting risks and costly damages can be eliminated with FLVT.

m+p international's FLVT solution delivers more accurate launch load replication for the actual flight mounting condition during validation tests. It enables you to increase test safety by limiting the acting forces during vibration testing manually, fully automatically or both simultaneously.
