Corrosion and Weathering Test

Cofomegra · Salt Spray · Cyclic

Programmable Salt Spray Cabinets

Salt Spray · Cyclic

Reproduces real-world salt fog, humidity, and temperature corrosion conditions. A 5% NaCl solution at 35 °C is atomized through a nozzle and uniformly distributed across the test area. Supports continuous condensation and full cyclic tests combining salt mist, condensation, and dry-air phases. Made entirely from corrosion-resistant PP

Cofomegra · Damp Heat · Humidity

Humidostatic chambers for corrosion testing

Corrosion and Weathering Test

Controlled damp-heat chamber maintaining constant to evaluate long-term corrosion resistance and material reliability. Simulates real condensation environments for metals, coatings, and sensitive electronic components. Results assessed by visual observation, chemical analysis, and mechanical property measurement.

Cofomegra · UV Fluorescent Aging

UV Light Accelerated Weathering Cabinet

UV Light Accelerated Weathering Cabinet

Simulates sunlight degradation via alternating cycles of UV radiation and controlled humidity. Reproduces months or years of outdoor damage — colour change, gloss loss, chalking, cracking, blistering and oxidation — in days or weeks. UVA-340 lamps offer the most realistic solar simulation; UVB-313 maximises acceleration.

Cofomegra · Xenon Weathering

Accelerated Fastness Xenon Test Cabinet

Xenon Weathering Accelerated Fastness Cabinet

Accelerated weathering tester using a single air-cooled xenon lamp — the spectral distribution closest to real sunlight. Controls irradiance, BST temperature, and humidity. Optional flooding system simulates rain using a closed demineralised water circuit. Industry 4.0 ready with remote diagnostics.

Compare protective coatings, surface treatments and base materials under controlled, reproducible conditions — before committing to production or fielding a product. Identify weaknesses early and reduce costly field failures.

Accelerated laboratory tests reproduce months or years of outdoor corrosion damage in days or weeks. Evaluate rust, blistering, delamination and loss of adhesion early — and rank materials before they reach the field.

Automotive OEMs, aerospace buyers and construction specifiers require corrosion test evidence to ISO 9227, ASTM B117, VDA and SAE standards before approving new materials, coatings or supplier qualifications.

UV radiation drives almost all photo-degradation of durable materials — color change, gloss loss, chalking, cracking and oxidation. Xenon and UV fluorescent chambers reproduce outdoor solar damage accurately and reproducibly.

Dew is responsible for most moisture damage in outdoor exposure — far more than rain. Humidity and damp heat chambers quantify resistance to constant and cyclic humid atmospheres at up to 55 °C — for metals, coatings, and electronics.

Routine salt spray and condensation testing verifies batch-to-batch consistency of coatings, plating lines and surface treatments — catching non-conformances before products reach customers or the field.
