CATEC has a HALT-HASS chamber for highly accelerated life testing, which allows reproducing, in a controlled and fast way, the conditions that a particular product may tackle over its useful life. Theses tests are especially important in aerospace and other sectors like energy and shipbuilding, as they are aimed at giving high levels of stress, making visible design flaws in structural components in short times.
Tests may submit a component or material to thermal cycles (temperature), mechanical (vibration) and/or humidity, and can be used to find the operating and destructive limits of components to enhance their development and performance. The system can also be applied especially to composite materials, in order to subject them to mechanical testing campaigns, and to study their degradation.
The main technical characteristics of the HALT-HASS chamber are:
-Volume maximum: 1,150 x 1,150 x 1,540 mm3
-Size of vibration table: 915 x 915 mm2
- Weight Maximum vibration table: 300 kg
-Range Temperature: -95 / +195º C
-Range humidity: 20% /l 95% in the range +30 / +85º C
-Speed heating / cooling: 60K/min.
