Environmental Testing
Boxborough is a full-service environmental test facility capable of managing your environmental test programs in the commercial, military, defense, telecom, transportation and medical markets. Our technicians and engineers are recognized experts in the performance of a wide array of environmental simulations. The lab boasts 32 temperature chambers (4 of which are walk-in temperature/humidity chambers).
Dynamics Testing
Dynamic testing is essential in a variety of products, components, and systems. This is particularly true for motorized systems, especially those intended for mass production like automobiles and airplanes, must adhere to strict operational requirements - even when subjected to various levels of vibrations, noises, pressures and other potentially disruptive forces. At the Boxborough lab, you get access to a wide range of dynamic testing services using a combination of electro-dynamic shaker systems, seismic systems, acceleration, static and dynamic loading, and more.
