Welcome to Advanced Testing & Engineering!

Specialists in Mechanical Durability Testing including:

 

High Temperature Thermal-cycling

Hot Gas Burners can simulate engine exhaust temperatures up to 1150°C and maximum flow-rates up to 700 standard cubic feet per minute. Temperatures and flows can be cycled to accelerate thermal-cycling or coupled with water spray/ submersion to subject exhaust components to thermal shock testing.

Vibration Testing

Hot Vibration Testing Exhaust Catalystic ConverterSine, random, sine-on-random, or shock – you provide the vibration profile and we’ll execute it. With (9) electro-dynamic shaker systems ranging from 4,500 force-pounds to 20,000 force-pounds and up to 2” stroke, ATE can handle even the most demanding vibration tests. Each shaker can be coupled with a hot/cold/humidity-controlled environmental chamber or a Hot Gas Burner.

Strength Testing

With the capability to perform strength tests exceeding 50,000 lbs and the ability to control displacement, ATE can perform ultimate load testing on most vehicle components.

Fatigue Testing

Fatigue testing at extreme temperatures with or without humidity provides our customers a way to truly simulate the vehicle environment. From isolators to shock absorbers, ATE is your complete source for fatigue testing needs.

Acoustic Measurement

With more emphasis on reducing noise in vehicles, ATE offers Noise evaluation of small components in our anechoic chamber.

Catalyst Aging

Focas Catalyst Convertor AgingAfter ten years of development, gasoline burner-based aging can now be correlated to engine/dyno-based aging, providing companies the potential to significantly reduce aging cycle time and cost.

FOCAS® catalyst aging is an alternative approach to engine-based aging that allows us to achieve higher temperatures with better control when compared to an engine-based system. This can accelerate the aging time required and minimize the risk associated with engine-based thermal aging, resulting in reduced lead-time and costs. As we move forward with the development of the FOCAS aging system, we continually look for new ways to provide expanded capabilities and versatility to our customers.

The future of catalyst aging is here today.
