Environmental Testing

For reliable product development product evaluation under simulated conditions of user environment is must. Environmental testing has therefore become a part and parcel of each stage in the product development cycle starting from Design through Prototype / Engineering model fabrication and final production offs: Environmental testing tools (both climatic and mechanical durability and electrical endurance) are used not only to evaluate the final product performance but also to built quality into the product through stress screening of PCB’s, Sub Modules & Modules as well. All these are necessary to avoid unwanted and costly field failures.

Establishing and maintaining environmental test facilities being quite expensive. Government of India at its own cost has set-up this Test Centre, ETDC-Bangalore, to render services and help industries in their product development.
