Tumble Test

The case is loaded up with up to 18kg and placed inside a rotating chamber full of obstacles; designed to maximize high drops and hard impacts – simulating rough handling during transport. The test is run for 25 cycles.

Drop Test

The suitcase is loaded with up to 20kg. It is then dropped on each surface, edge, and corner from a height of 60 cm. Additionally, the corner guards are also tested by being suspended and dropped on each corner 5 times.
