Functional testing of components or assemblies is of importance to demonstrate their
ability to meet the design requirements set forth by the customer. Functional testing,
unlike environmental testing, demonstrates the functionality of the equipment by
subjecting it to various customer–specified cycles of operation under different loading
conditions, and at all its operating modes. The goals include optimization of design after
equipment testing, check of operating parameters, calibration, etc.
The laboratory is fully equipped with a wide range of transducers, mechanical and
electrical testing load devices, instrumentation, data acquisition and recording
equipment, hydraulic and pneumatic equipment for test setups, mounting fixtures, etc.
Furthermore the laboratory will fabricate any required unique setups in support of the
functional tests.
An interesting example of this kind of testing is described in several articles that can be
found in the ARTICLES section. The articles describe a specialized air blast chamber
that AERO NAV LABORATORIES designed and fabricated. The purpose was to verify
the design of a piece of equipment required to survive an air blast condition, prior to
advancing to the full-sclae production effort.
