The Toolwatch series meets the rigorous U.S. MIL-STD-810, a military standard that outlines a series of tests to evaluate the environmental durability and ruggedness of equipment.
.
Developed by the United States Department of Defense, this standard is designed to ensure that equipment can withstand the harsh conditions it may encounter during its lifecycle, especially during military applications. In compliance with these parameters, we conducted drop tests on all four references from a height of 1.22 meters onto industrial concrete, with 26 drops — one for each surface, corner, and edge.
.
In addition to the drop tests, the Toolwatch series has undergone elevated aircraft stress simulations to assess shake and vibration resistance. This specific aspect of the MIL-STD-810 testing is crucial for ensuring that the watches can endure the intense vibrations and mechanical shocks experienced during flight operations. These rigorous tests are essential for validating the reliability and robustness of the Toolwatch series, ensuring that they perform flawlessly under extreme conditions.
