CentraTEQ to Showcase Wide Range of Vibration & Environmental Test Systems at Battery Tech Expo 24
March 26, 2024 | CentraTEQEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Environmental and vibration test specialists CentraTEQ are excited to be exhibiting at the upcoming Battery Tech Expo, scheduled to take place at Silverstone on April 25, 2024. Recognised as the UK’s largest technical expo dedicated to the battery value chain, the Battery Tech Expo is poised to bring together a comprehensive gathering of industry professionals, buyers, specialists, and suppliers.
At the event, CentraTEQ will highlight an assortment of products from renowned manufacturers, placing particular emphasis on Vibration Test products from ETS Solutions, a leading international supplier of vibration testing equipment. These products, including shakers, amplifiers, and slip tables, play a pivotal role in Environmental Stress Screening (ESS), enhancing product reliability through vibration testing methodologies.
Visitors to the CentraTEQ booth, B17, will have the opportunity to explore an extensive range of vibration testing products and services while engaging with experts to discuss custom test fixture requirements. Customised test fixtures play a crucial role in vibration and shock testing, ensuring reliable connection to vibration test systems and accurate simulation of real-life mounting conditions for test specimens.
Additionally, CentraTEQ will feature Hanse Environmental Stress Test systems, known for their extensive range of advanced HALT/HASS chambers and specialised environmental processing systems. These offerings cater to various industries, including automotive, electronics, and aerospace, ensuring robust testing solutions tailored to diverse needs.
Furthermore, the exhibition will spotlight Benchmark specialised shock testing equipment, such as the AVEX® Shock Machines, essential for the designing and destructive testing of components across various industries. With shock pulses ranging from 3G to 30,000G, these machines offer unparalleled validation capabilities for products subjected to extreme conditions.
