Environmental Simulation: Temperature and Climate Test Systems

Individual climate and temperature testing systems for reliable lifetime, environmental and functional testing.

Our environmental simulation services include: - Design of internal electronics and connector technology - FEM simulation of expected deformations due to temperature influences - Design of individual test specimen fixtures considering thermal expansion and its compensation - Optimization of the chamber's heating and cooling behavior, taking into account the thermal mass/heat capacity of the test specimen. Test throughput can increase by up to 30% compared to the manufacturer's standard temperature control. - Optimization of the chamber's internal airflow for improved and uniform temperature transfer to the test specimen. - Design of actuators (stepper and servo motors) that can remain permanently in the chamber – e.g., to mechanically load test specimens. - Connection of external measurement technology to different test specimen variants using switching matrices. Switchable interfaces to test nests – CAN, LIN, FlexRay, etc. - Test data management in end-of-line or lifetime testing mode. - Vibration-isolated structures to prevent vibrations from the chamber's own compressors or third-party systems from being transmitted to the test specimens. - Monitoring of environmental parameters such as air pressure, vibrations in the hall floor, floor tilt, and long-term monitoring.
