Thermotron’s AST-35 provides a mid-sized platform for performing Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT) on medium sized products or components. The patented multi-axis vibration table and rapid thermal change rate system make the AST-35 an ideal environment for optimizing product designs.

The AST-35 has the ability to interface with several sizes of repetitive shock shaker tables (including the RS-24, RS-28, RS-32 or the RS-36) depending on your testing requirements. Each of these shakers are multi-axis, repetitive shock vibration tables capable of producing acceleration levels in excess of 50 grms and provides consistent power spectral density energy over a broad frequency range.

Inside an AST-35

Capable of imparting extreme thermal stresses to products, the AST-35 produces high temperature change rates in excess of 50°C/min. The chamber’s high volume, high velocity airflow is configured through a slot and adjustable ducts, maximizing thermal stress direction imposed on the product, accelerating product failure rates.

The AST-8800 control system's intuitive graphical user interface makes the AST-35 easy to use. The 17-inch flat panel monitor displays power spectral density, temperature and acceleration data on easy-to-read screens. The controller is Ethernet-compatible and web-enabled with an internet-ready front end for virtual anytime/anywhere access.
