Services
HALT/HASS Testing
Our HALT/HASS testing services use rapid thermal cycling and multi-axis vibration to identify product weaknesses. We employ Qualmark's Typhoon series chambers with XLF-2 vibration technology to accelerate failure discovery. This methodology helps manufacturers improve product reliability through accelerated life testing and stress screening.
Environmental Stress Screening
We provide environmental stress screening solutions that combine temperature extremes with vibration testing. Our systems achieve thermal change rates up to 60C/min while maintaining precise vibration control. This process helps manufacturers identify design flaws and manufacturing defects before product launch.
Thermal Shock Chambers
Our thermal shock chambers deliver rapid temperature transitions between extreme hot and cold environments. ESPEC models offer air-air and liquid-liquid shock capabilities with small footprints and energy-efficient operation. These systems meet MIL STD 883 requirements for semiconductor testing applications.
Vibration Testing Systems
We offer electro-dynamic vibration systems for single and multi-axis testing applications. Qualmark's OVTT portable system provides six-degree-of-freedom vibration analysis while integrating with thermal chambers. Our solutions support random and sine vibration profiles for comprehensive mechanical stress testing.
Custom Chamber Solutions
Our custom chamber solutions include walk-in rooms, specialty enclosures, and automated test environments. ESPEC offers modular panelized construction for flexible configurations and specialized chambers for altitude, dust, and rain testing. We design systems to meet specific application requirements with automation integration capabilities.
