Reliable Performance Under Extreme Temperature Changes

 

Thermal shock testing evaluates the ability of electronic and mechatronic components to withstand rapid temperature changes without mechanical damage or loss of functionality.

​

With more than 15 years of hands-on experience in environmental testing and automotive validation, Eifel AQL Engineering specializes in the planning, technical coordination and evaluation of air-to-air Thermal Shock Testing according to IEC 60068-2-14.

​

Test programs are defined according to the applicable standard, customer specifications and product-specific requirements.

 

During the development of our in-house Thermal Shock testing facility, test execution is carried out in cooperation with qualified partner laboratories. Eifel AQL Engineering remains your technical point of contact throughout the project — from requirement review and test planning to coordination and documentation.

 

Our services help manufacturers identify potential weaknesses, evaluate product durability and support reliable product validation.
