Device testing setup

[Remark]

Hello everyone!

I'm currently writing technical documentation for one of the designing devices. I faced a question, how should the mechanical reliability of the device be defined? I'm talking about mechanical strength and stability during device transportation from one place to another.

Perhaps there are some methodologies or widely used and repeatable tests to describe the mechanical reliability of a device? I would like to know more about it.

Thank you very much for the answers.

I would start by looking at MIL-STD-810 - focusing on the test methods for vibration, shock, acceleration, etc...

You can use their terminologies and methodologies adjusted to your desires / budget constraints.
