Hydraulic Test Benches / Test Rigs

The hydraulic test bench is essential in the industrialisation of products. Also known as a "test bench", a hydraulic test bench is a hydraulic system that allows a product to be put into use in order to observe and measure its behaviour.

Widely used in industry, the hydraulic application test rig verifies and/or validates product functionality throughout the manufacturing process. It allows to determine the hydraulic and mechanical performances of the hydraulic networks and the equipments which compose it.

It can, for example, validate the technical characteristics of taps, mixers, flushes or shower columns, in the case of a test bench for sanitary fittings. Industrial test benches are also used in many other applications, for example in the automotive, nuclear, construction and aeronautics sectors.

The tests performed vary according to the nature of the product to be tested. Test benches are often custom designed by manufacturers and are adapted to each product range.
