EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 10326 testing. ISO 10326 specifies the basic requirements for laboratory testing of vibration transmission from a vehicle seat to a passenger. These measurement and analysis methods make it possible to compare test results from different laboratories for equivalent seats.
It specifies the test method, instrumentation requirements, measurement evaluation method, and the way the test result is reported. ISO 10326 applies to specific laboratory seat tests evaluating vibration transmission to occupants of all types used in vehicles and mobile off-road machinery.
Application standards for certain vehicles refer to this document when defining test entry vibration that is typical for the vibration characteristics of the type or class of vehicle or machine to which the seat will be installed.
Drivers, staff and passengers of vehicles (land, air or water) and moving machinery are exposed to mechanical vibration, which adversely affects their comfort, working efficiency and, in some cases, their safety and health. Such vehicles and mobile machinery are often fitted with seats designed and constructed according to the latest available technology in terms of their capacity to control or reduce transmitted whole-body vibration.
The seat forms the final stage of the suspension before the driver. In order to effectively reduce vibration, the suspension seat should be selected according to the dynamic characteristics of the vehicle. Any performance criteria provided should be adjusted to what can be achieved using design best practice. Such criteria do not guarantee that the operator is fully protected against the risks associated with vibration and shock exposure, which are generally believed to be a risk of spinal cord injury.
