Test systems

Automated solutionsfor reliable tests

RST Rostock System-Technik has been a cross-sectoral specialist for the development and manufacturing of individually adapted test systems for more than 30 years.

Our products are used to accompany development, within the scope of qualification and approval and for output tests or electronic, mechatronic and software products. A higher automation level significantly minimises error scenarios and achieves high reproduction rates.

No matter whether for prototype validation or checking series production lines: test systems from the company RST enable reliable, meticulous analysis of system-critical components for their relevant functions - and are in sought-after within the aviation and space sector as well as further technically demanding industries.

Industry

Data Transmission Demonstrator for the automotive industry

The expansion of e-mobility is accompanied by a significantly increasing need for communication as well as high demands on communication speeds in vehicle control systems. Against the backdrop of these developments, RST Rostock System-Technik conducted a feasibility study on behalf of a well-known company from the automotive industry. The aim was to verify demanding, functional communication requirements for the existing system architecture and identify corresponding system limits.

Aviation

IoT Access Point for the aircraft cabin

The need for wireless system communication within the aircraft cabin is growing increasingly. Among other things, this requires the use of aviation-approved access points (routers) to connect sensors and actuators with higher-level systems. On behalf of an international manufacturer of electronic cabin systems, RST Rostock System-Technik developed the prototype of such an IoT access point (hardware and software). The special development challenges included, on the one hand, the limited space...

SKF Marine

Test bench for radial plain bearings for ships’ shaft drives

RST Rostock System-Technik developed a test bench for the development of radial plain bearings for ships’ shaft drives, which were to be lubricated by seawater instead of oil or grease. The test bench enables the use of purified seawater with any media and sediment in order to simulate highly-varied ambient conditions. This development was made for SKF Marine.

VINCORION - JENOPTIK Advanced Systems

Test bench for helicopter rescue winches

A test bench for product qualification and the implementation of approval tests of the final product prior to delivery was needed for the development and subsequent series production of helicopter rescue winches. Here, it was important to observe that the test bench must exclusively react passively to operation modes which are specified by the rescue winch during operation. The test system and the product itself were developed simultaneously, in particular proving to be a challenge for the...

Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule Aachen

Test bench for electrical parameters for thermal spraying

Within the scope of a project sponsored by the Deutsche Forschungsgesellschaft [German Research Foundation] (DFG), RST Rostock System-Technik developed a test bench for the RWTH [Rhineland-Westphalian Technical College] Aachen. Based on the examination of coated material samples, the test bench enables the determination of electrical parameters within the scope of thermal spraying of surface coatings of components.

GSE for SARah satellite programme

Airbus Defence and Space supplies a radar satellite assembled in Friedrichshafen for SARah, the new reconaissance system of the German Armed Forces. In order to ensure that assembly can take place without any damages whilst taking the complex technical requirements into consideration, specific handling products, operating equipment and testing equipment are essential. RST Rostock System-Technik belonged to the suppliers selected to develop and provide the correspondingly critical infrastructure...

Airbus Commercial Aircraft

Test equipment for cabin communication systems

The Airbus site in Buxtehude is, among other things, responsible for the development and production of cabin electronics and cabin cabin communication systems for all Airbus aircraft. The products are subject to the highest quality standards, which is why they undergo extensive testing before being integrated into the aircraft. RST Rostock System-Technik has been developing fully automated test equipment for Airbus for more than 20 years, which enables efficient and reliable execution of these...

OHB

Thermal control system for a national satellite programme

RST Rostock System-Technik developed and integrated special check-out equipment (SCOE) for a national satellite programme for the verification and validation of the thermal control system. The SCOE’s major task is the emulation of the thermistors and heating circuits as well as the provision of a temperature simulation as input for the AIV simulator. This development was made for OHB.
