Video: Gas Gun Facility (engl.)
Our institute operates gas guns with various calibres from 12 to 200 mm for carrying out high-velocity impact tests. Our facility can accelerate impactors with a mass of 1 g up to 7 kg to a speed of about 50 to 500 m/s. It can thus be used to recreate all impact scenarios experienced by aircraft and high-speed trains in a laboratory environment. Typical data recorded during testing includes projectile velocity and videography of the impact process by digital high-speed video cameras.
