Gaming chairs need to undergo testing to evaluate if they can withstand fatigue, comfort, and wear. Changes in seat and backrest support occur over time under simulated usage, including repeated load cycles and sustained pressure. Accurate and reliable fatigue testing is crucial for understanding the performance and longevity of gaming chairs under simulated real-world conditions.
Interface’s SSMF Fatigue Rated S-Type Load Cell paired with with the SI-USB Universal Serial Bus Dual Channel PC Interface Module can measure the force being applied during a fatigue cycle test of the gaming chair. The SSMF is fatigue rated making it highly suitable for fatigue testing. Results can be measured, logged, and graphed with the SI-USB4 Universal Serial Bus Dual Channel PC Interface Module.
The fatigue test recorded accurate data about the rocking mechanism of the gaming chair as it was fatigue cycled into failure. Adjustments were made to the design to improve the safety and life of the gaming chair, ensuring product quality and protecting the manufacturer from future liability.
