The airbag module is an inflatable restraint system that inflates within 0.05 seconds automatically in a collision to protect the occupants. The airbag fabrics used in the module are required to have the good resilience and strength and also to have retained at least 80% of mechanical properties after using longer than 10 years. In this study, we develop an accelerated test method in order to predict the lifetimes of airbag. In this test, we select temperature and humidity as environmental stresses by analyzing the failure mechanisms of coated and uncoated nylon 66 fabrics. It is found that the degradation of airbag fabrics is effectively accelerated under the combined conditions of high temperature and humidity. Analyzing the results of the accelerated test, the lifetimes of airbag fabrics are predicted to be longer than 10 years.

The hydraulic servo actuator has always operated very precisely with high frequency and small displacement, and is used continuously for a long time. The hydraulic servo actuator of the test equipment used in the accelerated life test in order to guarantee the service life of the automotive parts failed earlier than the products before finishing the test. This study performed an analysis on the cause of the failure of the hydraulic servo actuator used in the test equipment, changed the design of the actuator to solve the root cause of the main failure mode, and developed the improved servo actuator. Based on above process, this study established a better performances and longer lifetime of the servo actuator after testing.

Track drive unit adopted in the small sized excavator generally have been used in the construction equipment under the 10 tons as the driving device with forwarding and reversing of excavator. It is required to study the accelerated life test applied by over torque and speed to test the durability life test reflected the many driving modes of small sized excavator and also need to equip the comprehensive performance and life test equipments to do the various performance tests. This study had analyzed the failure modes of the components, and calculated the equivalent loads investigated the used loads in the real field conditions and elicits the acceleration factor adopted in the inverse power model. Also, this study have considered the changes of the acceleration factor and the durability test time in the case of the rotary group and the bearing through analyzing the main failure modes. It was calculated the no failure test time about 2 samples and confidence level 90% and elicited the accelerated life time 720 hours.

Automobile markets are so fierce in the world market that every major manufacturer assure the buyer of the car by give a provocative warranty plan for their cars. For instance Hyundai motor company offer 10 years and 100,000 miles of warranty whichever comes first. But in order for this effort to be successful every critical component such as window switch has to be proven to be reliable in an adverse environment. Therefore, in this article reliability assessment criteria for window switch are established in terms of basic performance test, environment test and life test.

According to the rapid development of science technologies, a life and development cycle of products are getting shorter and structures and functions become more complex so that the reliability requirement of customers is getting greater for components in the products. However, most domestic mechanical components are manufactured by small and medium-sized companies, who are manufacturing in poor economic and technical condition. Because of this, assessment technologies and equipment to predict and guarantee the reliability are very weak. For this reason, it is the fact that many customers neglect the domestic mechanical components which fail to win the reliability. Korean government has been trying to eliminate the problem by establishing 18 reliability assessment centers in 2000 and performing R-Mark certification promotion and constructions of the foundation for reliability assessment to rebuild the reliability on the domestic components and materials. Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials has been designated as a supervising organization for reliability assessment in the machinery filed for 5 years. In this paper, we would like to introduce effective and systematized 12 steps of reliability substantiation test on mechanical components with know-how we achieved during the period.

A gear type lubrication pump is an essential component of the powertrain and has a major role for supplying oil to the gears and bearings in automatic transmission with a hydraulic clutch. Therefore, the durability test code design of lubrication pump is very important to ensure the reliability of the entire transmission and the vehicle. In this study, the design process for the life testing of lubrication pump has been generalized by four steps. The four design steps of the life testing of lubrication pump consist of the configuration of load spectrum, rain flow counting and analysis of load level, the equivalent damage assessment and test code generation. In fact, the load spectrum should be obtained from the field operating condition but that kind of data is the top secret of manufacturers. This is not open to the public in general. So we could use the artificially simulated load spectrum instead of field obtained one and focused on the development of the general process for designing the life test of a gear type lubrication pump. Reliability goals for lubrication pump, pressure, torque, temperature and load spectrum, if present, as appropriate for the given test conditions, accelerated life testing for the lubrication pump can be designed by the developed design steps.

카운터웨이트를 수명시험 하기 위해서는 실제 현장과 유사하게 2 톤의 무게를 가진시켜 주는 대형 가진기가 필수적이다. 그렇지만 이러한 장비를 일반업체에서 보유하여 시험하기는 어려우므로, 이러한 애로점을 해소하기 위해 본 연구에서는 첫번째로 2 톤의 중량물일지라도 건설기계의 신뢰성을 평가하는 전기터들로 구성되는 회전식 가진기를 사하여 실제 현장조건을 재현하는 시험장비를 개발하였고, 주요 구성품에 대해 카운터웨이트의 고장해석을 수행하였다. 두번째로 현장으로부터 필드데이터를 측정하여 수명시험에 활할 수 있도록 하였다. 마지막으로 성능과 수명을 확인하기 위해 가속수명시험법을 개발하였고, 제품의 고장발생 없이 $B_5$ 10,000 시간을 만족하는 가속수명시험을 완료하였다.
