ISO Standards: Horizontal Force & Shear Test Method

This is the 6th blog in our series on understanding cushion properties with the help of ANSI/RESNA and ISO standards. See part 1 here, part 2, part 3,part 4, and blog 5.

We’re continuing our series on understanding cushion properties with the help of ANSI/RESNA and ISO standards. So far, we’ve covered the ISO 16840-6 standard of simulation of aging, the pressure mapping test method, and the method for measuring the depth of immersion. Today we’re looking at the horizontal force test, which is part of ISO 16840-2, and a shear force test method.

SmartDrive MX2+ App Update: Improved PushTracker E2 Performance

Now, as the Director of Market Development for TiLite and SmartDrive, I get to help answer the challenge of integrating user feedback into product development and product updates.

Fostering Independence for Children with Limited Mobility

Part 5 in our series about developmental milestones in early childhood focusing on mobility. Seepart 1, part 2,part 3, and part 4.
