Packaging - Complete, filled transport packages and unit loads - Vertical random vibration test (ISO 13355:2016)

ISO 13355:2016 specifies a method to carry out a vertical random vibration test on a complete, filled transport package(s) and unit loads using random excitation[1]. This document also provides methods for assessing the performance of a package in terms of its strength or the protection that it offers to its contents when it is subjected to vertical vibration. The test discussed in this document can be performed either as a single test to investigate the effects of vertical vibration, or as a part of a sequence of tests designed to measure the ability of a test specimen to withstand a distribution system that includes a vibration hazard.
NOTE          In this International Standard, a package or unit load is referred to as test specimen.
[1]   Random vibration theory is discussed in IEC 60068-2-64.

Verpackungen - Versandfertige Packstücke und Ladeeinheiten - Schwingprüfung mit vertikaler rauschförmiger Anregung (ISO 13355:2016)

Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren für die vertikale Schwingprüfung an (einem) versandfertigen Packstück(en) und Ladeeinheiten fest, unter Verwendung rauschförmiger Anregung ). Des Weiteren stellt dieses Dokument Verfahren zur Überprüfung der Festigkeit eines Packstückes und seines Schutzvermögens unter vertikaler Schwinganregung auf. Die in diesem Dokument erläuterte Prüfung kann entweder als Einzelprüfung durchgeführt werden, um die Auswirkung vertikaler Schwingbelastung zu untersuchen, oder als Teil eines Prüfprogramms zur Ermittlung der Widerstandsfähigkeit einer Verpackung im Rahmen eines bestimmten Verteilungssystems (Transportkette), das eine Gefährdung durch Schwingung einschließt.
ANMERKUNG   In dieser Internationalen Norm wird ein Packstück oder eine Ladeeinheit als Prüfling bezeichnet.

ISO 13355:2016 spécifie une méthode pour réaliser un essai de vibration verticale aléatoire sur un (des) emballage(s) d'expédition complet(s) et plein(s) et les charges unitaires à l'aide d'une excitation aléatoire[1].
Ce document fournit des méthodes pour évaluer la performance d'un emballage en fonction de sa résistance ou de la protection qu'il offre à son contenu lorsqu'il est soumis à des vibrations verticales. L'essai abordé dans la présente Norme internationale peut être effectué comme un essai isolé, dans le but d'examiner les effets d'une vibration verticale, ou peut faire partie d'une série d'essais destinés à mesurer la résistance d'un élément d'essai dans un système de distribution qui comprend un risque de vibration.
NOTE          Dans la présente Norme internationale, un emballage ou une charge unitaire est nommé un élément d'essai.

Overview

EN ISO 13355:2016 (ISO 13355:2016) - published by CEN/ISO - specifies a standardized method for performing a vertical random vibration test on complete, filled transport packages and unit loads. The standard defines how to reproduce vertical vibration hazards using random excitation, and provides assessment methods to evaluate package strength and the protection offered to contents. Tests can be run as standalone vertical-vibration checks or as part of a multi-test sequence simulating a distribution system.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Test scope: Complete, filled transport packages and unit loads (referred to as the test specimen).
• Vibration method: Vertical random excitation (random vibration theory per IEC 60068-2-64).
• Frequency range: Nominally 2 Hz to 200 Hz with at least 1 Hz resolution (low-end adaptable by agreement).
• Apparatus: Stiff vibration table (lower resonant frequency above the test frequency) of suitable size, power and displacement.
• Measurement & control:
  • Accelerometers, signal conditioning and data system capable of generating required power spectral density (PSD).
  • Analysis with at least 120 statistical degrees of freedom; data/control response accurate to ±5% across test band.
• Test procedure highlights:
  • Condition specimens per ISO 2233 and mount per ISO 4180 guidance.
  • Centre of gravity near table centre; horizontal acceleration components limited to ≤20% of vertical.
  • Start at –6 dB below test level to equalize PSD, then ramp to full level for the specified duration.
  • Tolerances: RMS acceleration ±15%; PSD deviation ±3 dB across the frequency range.
• Documentation: Test report must reference ISO 13355 and record test conditions, dates, specimen IDs and responsible personnel.
• Annexes: Annex A (normative) provides a generic transportation PSD; Annex B (informative) gives PSDs derived from recorded data.

Practical applications and users

• Who uses it: Packaging engineers, test laboratories, manufacturers, logistics and freight companies, quality assurance teams, and standards bodies.
• Why use it:
  • Validate package design against real-world vertical vibration hazards.
  • Compare packaging materials and cushioning strategies.
  • Support compliance testing, supplier acceptance, and failure analysis.
  • Integrate into a full distribution test programme to simulate transport damage mechanisms.

Introduction
A random vibration test is a more realistic method in reproducing environmental vibration during
transportation than sinusoidal vibration test. For this reason, if suitable laboratory facilities are
available, a vibration test is more preferable than any fixed or swept frequency sinusoidal vibration
tests similar to those given in ISO 2247 and ISO 8318.
