[Case Study] University at Buffalo, State University of New York, Shake Table Facility 6DOF
Providing technology that can be flexibly configured to quickly meet the new requirements of the exam.
Over the past 30 years, the University at Buffalo (UB) Structural Engineering and Earthquake Simulation Laboratory (SEESL) has played a major role in the advancement of civil structural engineering. The laboratory has conducted high-quality education and pioneering research, and has assisted various industries in the development of codes, standards, and testing methods. Since 1983, MTS has provided SEESL with configurable technology that can quickly adapt to new testing requirements, as well as ongoing expertise in testing necessary for the laboratory's engineers to pursue new research methods. This long-term relationship has enabled SEESL to continuously demonstrate new technologies that improve the accuracy of civil structures and seismic simulations. In 2004, SEESL significantly renovated its facilities, expanding them threefold and integrating a series of state-of-the-art MTS testing equipment. "Without the presence and support of MTS, I don't know if we would have come this far. The partnership with MTS over the past 30 years has been wonderful. I hope this relationship continues in the future," was the comment received. For more details, please contact us or refer to the catalog.

MTS Japan, Inc. is the Japanese subsidiary of the American engineering company MTS Systems Corporation, which specializes in various testing equipment. For over 40 years, we have provided engineering consulting services to users in Japan, delivering earthquake simulation systems, automotive durability testing systems, aircraft fatigue testing equipment, and various material testing devices to public institutions, universities, and private companies in our country. All of these systems play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of their operations and are indispensable when it comes to "manufacturing" products. MTS Japan, Inc. was established in June 1972 with a 50% investment from MTS Systems Corporation. In May 1975, it became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, and in 1981, we established the Nagoya branch (now the West Japan branch) to strengthen our sales and support system, which continues to this day. Through collaboration with MTS, we achieve optimization of design, improvement of productivity, and reduction of time to market for our customers' products.
