Certification and testing are crucial areas of product development, but without the right skills and experience it can be lengthy and costly. We offer our experience and tools to ensure that this process is quick and effective, leading to robust, reliable and marketable products.
Certification
Achieving type certification requires time and know-how. Designers and manufacturers must be able to provide the right information for the certification body to make an accurate assessment on fitness for purpose.
Using our experience and tools, Romax can ensure your product moves quickly through the certification process. For details on how Romax can assist throughout the certification steps please see the Certification Process page.

Test Rig Design
Romax are not only experts in helping clients achieve certification, Romax are also experts in test rig design for wind turbine drivetrains. Romax can provide services ranging from the review of existing test facilities to concept design and full turn key solutions for gearbox and nacelle test rigs. Romax can design either mechanical back to back or electrical recirculation test rigs depending on client requirements and budgets.
Analysis services
A wealth of real world test data is useless unless you have an expert to analyse and interpret the data. Romax’s experience of wind
turbine drivetrain design and modelling gives us a unique insight into the issues that affect wind turbines in the field.
