ENVIRONMENTAL TESTING:
Simulated test environments are all about preparing products for real-world use. This is accomplished by gaining as much testing experience and performance data as early as possible during the products’ lifecycles. Simulated environmental testing usually involves creating artificial environments for test items to determine their expected resilience to their anticipated environments.Environmental testing sounds simple enough in theory, but there are some real challenges when trying to design a product for its environment.
There are several good reasons for your company to perform environmental simulation testing, and it’s especially important to the overall success of your business. These reasons include:
- Testing to specific standards and requirements is almost always a requirement of doing business.
- Providing them with a distinct competitive advantage
- All major Test Standards require environmental testing.
- Simulated environment testing can expose many design flaws early in the design process.
DYNAMIC AND VIBRATION
Dynamics Testing:
Products must pass a series of tests to ensure readiness for mass production. Each industry utilizes a variety of test specifications to validate their products. The goal is to see whether the subjected parts will ultimately comprise a full product viz.
Automobile, aircraft or machine are strong enough to withstand the dynamics. Envitest includes various types of dynamic testing employed on various industries.
Capabilities include:
- Acoustic noise testing
- Impact testing
- Vibration testing
- Shock testing
- Drop testing
- HALT testing
- HASS testing
- HATS testing
- Materials fatigue testing
- Bump/Bounce Testing
Dynamics testing types range from moderate to intense based on the endurance requirements of a given product. Envitest has some of the most extensive dynamics testing capabilities in the world. We operate Dynamics Testing facilities end to end and we have extensive experience with all product types.The goal of dynamic testing is to determine how many forces a product can withstand and still maintain its composition and functionality.
In real-life settings, excess loads of acceleration can have damaging effects on numerous commercial and industrial products. For example,
- Structural damage
- Stressed, leaky seals
- Jammed actuators
- Broken mounting pieces
- Flickering sensors
- Ruined contacts
Vibration Testing:
For machines, vehicles, aircraft and electronics, vibration testing is a crucial part of the product-inspection process. The impacts of shakes and tremors can be damaging to the internal mechanisms of any product that lacks sound design. Therefore, vibration tests are performed on products before release in the military, aerospace, and automotive sectors.In order to test the vibration resistance of these various components, tests are employed with shaker tables on which parts are subject to heavy tremors.
Common test standards that require vibration testing along with a variety of commercial testing specifications areMIL STD 810, MIL-STD 202 method 213, MIL-STD-810 method 516.6, MIL-STD-750-2 method 2016.2,ISTA 3A, JSS 55555, IEC 60068-2-XX, NEBS-GR, RTCA-DO, JIS, ISO, ETSI-EN, IS etc.
Mechanical Shock Testing:
Shock testing subject’s products to extreme force with respect to time. Mechanical shock testing is a sub-category of vibration testing utilizing shock with a very specific purpose of validating the fragility of a product or component. Unlike impact testing, mechanical shock tests are conducted with controlled variables for G-force (gravitational units) and are limited to a single degree of freedom. Mechanical shock testing is commonly used for fragility analysis and utilizes sudden, extreme acceleration or deceleration.
Mechanical shock testing is utilized in a variety of industries such as automotive, aerospace and defense. Common requirements for shock testing include, MIL STD 810, MIL-STD 202 method 213, MIL-STD-810 method 516.6, MIL-STD-750-2 method 2016.2, as well as other industrial testing standards.
Drop Testing:
What goes up must come down and if an object does not land as planned, it will inevitably cause some degree of impact. With drop testing, products and/or packaging is tested to determine the height from which these products can drop and remain intact after impact. Drop testing is important for products and packaging in all sectors.
Common drop test conditions consist of a freefall from various heights onto a solid surface. The drop height for each test is dependent on requirements set forth by standards such as those from MIL-STD, JSS, IEC, ISO ASTM, ISTA etc.
HALT testing, HASS testing, HATS testing:
For manufacturers, it is important to know how each product is likely to endure the process of aging during its expected lifespan. The tests that employ age-accelerating processes include Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT), Highly Accelerated Stress Screening (HASS) and Highly Accelerated Thermal Shock (HATS) testing. HALT tests are employed to find weaknesses within a given test device. During a HALT test, heat and vibration are applied for short periods at high volumes to see how the product will weather the exposure.
Ultimately, the objective is not to see whether a product can survive the test but to determine how long and at what levels of exposure the product can function and hold its composition before failing.
The purpose of HASS testing is to see whether defects are present in a product during stages of manufacturing. While HALT testing is employed to test products in beta form, HASS tests challenge the durability of each product in revised form. Highly Accelerated Thermal Shock (HATS) testing, as the name implies, tests the durability and operability of products in the event of thermal shock.
Dynamics Testing at Envitest:
Before a product is manufactured and released for use in large quantities, it is crucial to have it tested for maximum strength and durability. Whether a given part is designed for use in an aircraft, vehicle, military weapon, factory machine or commercial product, lives and property could be at stake if the product fails to perform its intended function.

CONTAMINATION AND INGRESS
Fluid Contamination and Susceptibility Testing,
Evaluate Fluid Contamination in Aerospace & Automotive Hydraulics
:
In real-world use, products are exposed to a variety of chemicals on a daily basis. Fluid susceptibility testing evaluates how much damage is done by exposure to liquids, and how product design can help prevent failures by fluid contamination. Because most fluid contamination is caused by chemical spills or temporary exposure, our test methods are designed to replicate actual conditions as much as possible.
The Fluid Contamination (also known as Contamination by Fluids or Fluids Susceptibility) Testing process involves testing items in many different fluids in order to determine the possible breakdown of materials or coatings, which may occur during an item’s service life.
Envitest Lab provides fluid compatibility testing to a number of recognized industry standards and designs custom protocols to meet your specifications. Envitest Lab has dedicated testing chambers for acidic, Neutral, and base solutions available in order to evaluate equipment under test, as required by Military, automotive and commercial standards.
Our chambers can test to the following fluid types:
- Cleaning fluids

- Solvents
Ingress Protection (IP) Testing:
Ingress Protection testing, or IP testing, determines a product’s susceptibility to solid particle ingress (sand or dust) as well as water ingress.
Envitest environmental simulation labs provide IP testing to specifications including JSS 55555, RTCA-DO-160 (avionics), MIL-STD’s (military), IEC/IS/EN 60529 & NEMA (electronics), as well as DIN and SAE standards (automotive). The Ingress Protection standard we most commonly test to is BS EN/IEC 60529.
Envitest Lab utilizes calibrated IP testing equipment, including immersion tanks, nozzles and dust specific to the IP rating required. Utilizing purpose built, walk-in test chambers, we are also able to test on very large components/enclosures. Our Engaged Experts can help with guidance and offer advice on custom testing methods to meet your requirements.
Dust and water can find their way inside a product at a layer that joins two parts. Therefore, layers between components are often sealed by a gasket — either a rigid or a flexible gasket.Many products require insulation from outside elements in order to function properly. Those outside elements include mist, steam, sprayed water, sand, oil and even fingers, just to name a few. Ingress protection testing helps determine whether a particular product is going to function appropriately when placed in the field.
MATERIALS / METALLURGICAL TESTING
Materials Testing:
The importance of materials testing cannot be underestimated. Across every major industry, manufacturers, developers and operators of critically important systems, products and components need to be assured that the materials employed in forming their equipment are up to their intended tasks. That’s why the most diligent method of verifying that the materials companies use in manufacturing processes will perform to expectations and adhere to all applicable regulations is through reliable materials testing.
All the business sectors — from aerospace and defense to consumer goods and construction — must adhere to strict quality control and safety standards. Most of the manufacturers, their business involves a good deal of innovation through research and development and tend to use compatible materials due to competitive pressure, to be the first to market or to showcase their breakthroughs.
