Environmental simulation is an integral part of qualification testing for aerospace and automotive parts. Element provides combined altitude, humidity, temperature and vibration testing to meet test requirements and simulate real-world conditions in less time.

Our product qualification testing labs replicate the natural conditions that your product will experience in its lifetime. By combining multiple environmental test methods, we can create a single test program that provides accurate and reliable test results, while cutting down on time-to-market. 

Our lab can provide combined environmental simulation to cover requirements for MIL-STD-810, RTCA DO-160, DEF STAN 0035, EUROCAE ED14 and more.

Our altitude, humidity, temperature and vibration capabilities

Element performs temperature cycling and thermal shock with humidity, altitude and vibration to create a test plan that meets your needs. Our capabilities include dual temperature chambers for components that require multiple thermal conditions; hydraulic vibration systems that can be paired with thermal chambers; altitude chambers with thermal and humidity capabilities; humidity chambers with temperature controls and steady state temperature testing for low and high temperatures.

Combined temperature and vibration testing

Mechanical components and systems are often subjected to extreme temperatures, both as a result of the environmental temperature and as a result of friction, combustion, or other consequences of how they are used. Because materials often perform and age differently at extreme temperatures, combined temperature and vibration testing is essential to understanding how parts and systems will react to the conditions of the real world. Element’s large-capacity labs and sophisticated environmental chambers allow us to conduct combined temperature and vibration testing to your specifications.

We deliver results that ensure product compliance while helping you meet your contractual requirements for time and cost. Our labs have the capacity and the expertise to assist in a wide variety of projects, for components both large and small. With a global platform of accredited labs, you can be assured that your aerospace and automotive qualification programs are in safe hands with Element.
