Research and Testing


Robinson Seismic is able to conduct confidential research for customers and has a number of unique test machines, for both seismic isolation or mechanical damping.

Contract Research

Robinson Seismic Ltd specialises in developing, testing and manufacturing seismic protection and damping equipment.

We are able to conduct confidential research for customers in the area of vibration control and damping.

Testing Facilities

Test Rig with a 200 kN Robinson Vibration Damper (PVD) under test

Two bearings, each weighing three quarters of a tonne, are put through a seismic-simulation test rig.

Robinson Seismic has a number of unique test machines suitable for testing a range of dampers and seismic isolation systems. Testing facilities include:

    * A 7500 kN test rig (simulated vertical load compression < 20MN, tension < 10MN, horizontal load < 7.5MN)

    *   A 700 kN test rig (simulated vertical load compression < 6MN, tension < 2MN, horizontal load 700 kN)

    *   A universal test machine (+/- 250 kN)

The manufacturing facility of Robinson Seismic Ltd in Malaysia has its own seismic isolator test machine which has a 4,000 tonne compression capacity, 2000 tonne in tension, and a sheer capacity of 700 tonnes with total stroke of one metre.
