Our equipment

SUNTEST XLS+

The SUNTEST XLS+ is used to check for property changes of materials and products caused by sunlight, temperature and moisture in a short period of time. The aging which, outdoor or indoor, may take place over months or years, such as fading, yellowing or loss of strength, can often be simulated within weeks inside a SUNTEST.

UV Test

The Atlas UVTest is an instrument for tests that vary light/dark cycles, temperature, condensing humidity, water sprays, and irradiance control. To produce condensation, a heated reservoir in the bottom of the test chamber produces water vapor that rises to the upper chamber where specimens will be exposed to UV radiation and uniform wetting at 100% relative humidity.

Salt Spray Chamber ssc 400

One of the main destructive agents of nature is corrosion, being one of the main causes of economic losses. The Salt Spray Chambers simulate the resistance that may have a material throughout its useful life in a short period of time. The Salt Spray Corrosion Test consists of an accelerated corrosion attack by an artificial salt spray of a certain composition, in the exact conditions of temperature and pressure.

TABER Rotary Platform Abrasion Tester

This rotary abrasion tester is used to determine relative resistance to abrasion defined as "the ability of a material to withstand mechanical damage" such as rubbing, scraping or erosion.  Taber Abraser rapidly became the world standard for evaluating abrasion resistance. Capable of providing reliable data in a matter of minutes compared to the years that may be required by in-use testing. Taber tests involve mounting a flat specimen to a turntable platform that rotates on a vertical axis at a fixed speed.  Two genuine Taber abrasive wheels applied at a specific pressure are lowered onto the specimen surface.
