To assist clients to plan their test programme and to take any mystique out of mechanical testing, Chiltern Dynamics has issued a comprehensive set of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs). Many clients are concerned that they might not be allowed to watch their test, but as Senior Test Engineer Paul Andrews explained, ‘We actively encourage clients to attend testing as a means to develop their understanding of the test and, in the event of any failures, to allow a fast and effective resolution. We cannot, of course, allow witnessing of product tests other than a client’s own without written consent from the testing manufacturer.’
Other key questions include:
- What size and configuration of test product is required?
- Can I use my suppliers test evidence for CE marking?
- What is required by SBD?
