Teaser shots taking inside the Rupes Manufacturing Plant in Milan, Italy

to be more accurate, since they are on the floor attached to racks, they are probably doing some kind of drop tests along with motor testing/energy consumption testing
 
Heat test to determine maximum surface temperature when turned on for a lengthy time.
 
I would think fatigue testing of any sort might include nominal working pressure on the head. Maybe a "let's see when they fail via customer use". Those machines are simply suspended with nylon looking wire ties. If turned on i would expect some wild vibration variances.

So what are you suggesting Puckman? Basically, dunno but would lean towards vibration variations through various speed settings. Seeing as that's already been suggested, not going for the prize! Just a guess.
 
How long the motors will run in a suspended, free-air environment?
That or "loudness". ;)

And of course zip tie testing. :D
 
All the good guess already said... so just giving a shot but maybe giving a last test (balance,noise,vib,oil leaks) before packing it and shipping it to the customer
The Potential Defects
 
I think it is testing polishing action. Just a guess. 😎
 
Wow!

Lots of great guesses and the right guess has been posted multiple times. The person that posted it first will win the prize.

I'll go see what Nick has on his desk and sometime today I'll post who the winner is and we'll get their address and ship them their prize.

Always interesting....

It is testing the ergonomics and user-friendliness of the polisher. This is a combination of numerous things - balance, vibration, stability, weight distribution to name a few.
 
:dblthumb2: Congrats Tacket! Good job and it only took you 3 minutes to come up with the correct answer.
 
Awesome - PM sent! I knew my obsessive checking of new posts on AG would pay off one day!!
 
I hope you don`t get the empty wrapper that's often talked about off of Nicks desk(It` just a joke on the forum).Congats. to you.I don`t enter these closest cause I blessed to be one of the closest members to the geek.Even if I did win I would give it to a deserving member.I did keep the Ivan bobble head that I won and use to to promote the geek at car shows.If you ever get the chance to come to one of the Thursday night makeovers or Cars-N- Coffee you will never be disappointed.Knowledge and give a ways,how can you go wrong.Set your calenders for Detail Fest and come to visit sunny Stuart,FL.:hijacked:Maybe I`ll get a pass.
 
Yes, the only test it could be is for failure, based upon the set up. The ties just prevent the machine from falling over or moving around too much. There are no sensors to measure vibration. There are no sensors to measure heat, either.
I saw this immediately. Unfortunately I was second to answer.
 
Holy cow! Didn't expect to win this bounty of treasure! Just came in today - looks like I've got some work to do!
