G-Lab Human Centrifuge |
The G-Lab provides the solution for economical and safe high G training. It has a 20-foot arm, onset rates of up to 8G/sec, G levels up to 15G, and includes a gravity controlled roll axis. It's a proven system that has served air forces the world over for a combined total of 30 in-service training years.
ETC's G-LAB® Single Axis Human Centrifuge has proven its safety and reliability in over 50,000 pilot runs without injury or failure. |
Thousands of pilots and aircrew received their high G training in an ETC G-Lab centrifuge. Additionally, the G-Lab's proven high reliability ensures that it will always be ready for training (the USAF G-Lab® received a greater than 99% in-service rate over a 10 year period and trained more than 25,000 students).
ETC applies in-depth safety engineering to the G-Lab® to provide minimum risk training.
The G-Lab® supports basic high G training and research. Gondola roll motion is gravity controlled and damped. The gondola roll axis is carefully located to minimize undesirable cueing motion during acceleration and deceleration.
The gondola contains an out-the-window visual display and center and side sticks for pilot control during target tracking sessions. It has an adjustable seat back angle of 13° or 30° replicating the geometry of most fighter aircraft. The pilot seat can be rotated 90° to support lateral G exposures. |
