Test House

In the heart of Krokslätts Fabriker, a state-of-the-art testhouse stands ready to serve.

CPAC Testhouse provides cutting-edge testing and verification services tailored for product and system developers across all industries. Our comprehensive testing suite covers a wide range of services, including simulations, test design, and environmental testing, ensuring that every aspect of your product is thoroughly examined and optimized for performance.

Drawing on our extensive 20 years of experience in the automotive industry, we offer advanced services that are available as individual solutions or packaged into complete testing and verification (T&V) programs. These programs can be further enhanced by the opportunity to collaborate with CPAC’s development team, providing expert guidance to help optimize your design and achieve the highest standards of quality and reliability.

At our testhouse, we are equipped to perform numerous types of environmental tests, such as temperature shock, temperature cycling, humidity, vibration, and IP testing. These tests are designed to rigorously assess your product’s durability and performance under various conditions, ensuring that it meets industry standards and customer expectations. Specifications for vibration testing, climate testing, and temperature shock can be found at the bottom of the page. Whether you are developing a new product or refining an existing one, CPAC Testhouse is committed to helping you achieve excellence through our advanced testing and verification services.
