Automotive Test & Ageing Ovens

Overview

Development and validation programmes expose materials and components to elevated temperatures — for long-duration thermal ageing of polymers, elastomers, cables and coatings, or for heat-soak and functional tests of parts that are powered or under load.

These ovens are designed for stable long-term operation. Depending on the test plan, they can be equipped with cable and instrumentation feed-throughs, sample racks, controlled air exchange, programmable test profiles, data recording and safety interlocks for powered testing.

Oven dimensions, heating configuration, airflow arrangement and control features are engineered according to the process requirements and production capacity.

Typical applications

• Polymer, elastomer and cable ageing
• Coating durability tests
• Heat-soak and functional testing
• Validation and end-of-line testing
