Many thanks to all those who responded to my request for companies supplying
head forms for impact testing. I received the following responses and
several members of the list requested the information to be passed on to
them. I hope this reposting to the list will suffice.
Sincerely,

Good Morning Dr. Newton,
I won't give you a list because there is to my knowledge, not much of a list
to give. Depending on the type of testing you want to do their are only a
few headforms and therefore manufactures that I am aware of. If you could
tell me what kind of impact testing you want to do, I'd be happy to ask
around the company and compile a list and give a recommendation.

I have several contacts for biomechanical test headforms. The headform you
require depends upon the type of headform that you need ... and different
headforms are available from different people.
If you need a NOCSAE headform, you need to contact Mr. Dave Halstead at U.
Tenn
(dhalstead@utk.edu) or Dr. Trey Crisco (joseph_crisco@brown.edu). This
headform
is also called the WSU headform and was originally designed by Voigt Hodgson
at
Wayne State University (WSU).
If you need headforms to test for DOT 218 (motorcycle helmets), then you
need to
contact Controlled Castings in Plainview, NY - the last phone number I have
is
516 349 1717
If you need ISO headforms for testing to ASTM or CPSC standards (i.e.
bicycle
helmets, skateboard helmets, etc.), then you need to contact Mr. Serge
Dextraze
of Cadex. They are located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada ... the phone number
is
450 348 6774 (Fax#: 450 348 7157)
If you need to conduct automobile like impacts (i.e. into a windshield or a
windshield header), then you should purchase a hybrid III headform
(basically a
crash test dummy) --- you can purchase these from First Technology in
Plymouth
Michigan (info@ftss.com) 734 451 7878, FAX 734 451 9549.
