The work aims to provide a new method for 90 m/s impact test of C-type package. The short-distance launch technique based on compressed air driving and reversed traction and the short-distance arrest technique based on damp buffer cylinder and dyneema rope were applied to establish a new high velocity impact test method for heavy load and form a test facility. The short-distance launch and impact of a large mass specimen with a load more than 5 t and a velocity more than 90 m/s were realized. Compared with rocket sled and high-altitude cable commonly used in C-type package impact test in the past, this test facility has the characteristics of less occupied land, low construction cost, good adjustability and repeatability, convenient testing, economical and safe operation, etc., which provides a new way for simulating air accidents and testing the performance of C-type packages and also supplies a new supporting technique for performance simulation and testing of other types of packages and equipment under other kinds of accidental transportation conditions on roads, railways, etc.
