THE MECHANICAL LABS

We offer various environmental and reliability tests to meet your specific needs. With extensive competence in Hardware test and Test development of products and solutions, we can simulate the challenges your product will be exposed to during its lifecycle.

The tests are performed according to your general specification or tailor-made to meet international specification standards (ie IEC, ASTM or MIL).

We can also provide tailor-made test specifications that are designed specifically for your product.

Typical test offerings:

Climate test

What can we do for you?

In our mechanical labs, we put your product to the test by subjecting it to all of the potential stresses that will and can occur during its lifetime. During these tests, we identify the weak points within the design, ensuring you bring high-quality products to market.
