Scalable and auditable
from prototype to series production
Automated thermal testing – production-ready, reproducible, audit-ready. Conventional climate chambers test temperature. Engmatec tests real operating conditions. We develop and implement bespoke thermal test systems that intelligently combine temperature, electrical load and process automation – from development through to series production.
Precision robotics, energy-efficient climate control modules and flexible material feeding enable a modular, scalable solution for burn-in and climate testing automation. Test engineers, production managers and quality managers benefit from maximum efficiency, a compact design and reliable performance – even under extreme temperature conditions ranging from −70 °C to +180 °C. Improve product quality whilst reducing energy consumption and lead times.
Why traditional climate chambers are not sufficient
- Temperature testing without a real electrical load
- Manual connection
- Not scalable
- No integrated data logging
- High labour costs
- High carbon footprint-Belastung
Our solution: near-production thermal test automation
- Precise temperature control
- Electrical load profiles under real-world conditions
- Synchronised data acquisition (temperature, current, voltage, resistance)
- Automated handling and contacting
- Full traceability and auditability
- Flexible material feeding: e.g. tray handling, magazine loaders for SMD magazines, direct machine integration for in-line testing, as well as scalable options such as additional cells or bypass/coupler logic
thermIQ FlexCell - modular test cell for cost-effective scaling
- Significantly faster temperature control, approx. 3–5 times faster than tunnel processes
- Up to 50% lower energy consumption compared to conventional tunnel systems
- Standard temperature range from −70 °C to +180 °C
- Compact footprint with high space efficiency (only approx. 30–40% of the space required by a tunnel)
- Modular and scalable: invest only in what is needed today and expand as required
- Robotic automation for removal, handling, inspection and sorting
YOUR BENEFITS: Greater security. Lower risk. Faster approvals.
- Reduction of thermally induced complaints
