PINETTE PEI provides test benches for testing launch vehicle interstage structures and launch vehicle/satellite interface parts. This control equipment can apply tensile, compressive and bending forces. In use for over 20 years, this test system has proven its reliability. Its lifespan has demonstrated that the design of its structure ensures the neutrality of the bench in relation to the stresses exerted on the specimens. It has also been designed to facilitate reconfiguration operations.
