Hi, We have a requirement to perform 20g 100ms half-sine shocks on a new product we are developing. The shock requirement comes I believe from a helicopter specification. We have scoured our usual environmental test facilities but the duration is too long for them due to the high displacement required. We have located a facility in Munich but the logistics of performing the test over there is not ideal. Does anyone have any good ideas of a test house in the UK or at least closer off shore that can do this specialised test? The mass of our unit would be circa 10kg.

Hope someone can help
Nick
 
Former employer in UK dealt with a test house in Warwick area as I recal, I think Cape engineering. Tried Googling looks like maybe they've been acquired by 'TRaC'
