Climatic testing
Thermal tests (heat, cold, temperature and humidity variations) are used to check the resistance, functionality and integrity of the objects under test, highlighting weaknesses and failures.
Thermal tests are often combined with vibration, mechanical stress, fluid circulation and pressure tests.
