SGS Advanced Testing & Engineering has the experience to get the job done right the first time... On-time.

Catalytic Converter Testing and High Temperature Thermal-Cycling

Hot Gas Burners can simulate engine exhaust temperatures up to 1150°C and maximum flow-rates up to 700 standard cubic feet per minute. Temperatures and flows can be cycled to accelerate thermal-cycling or coupled with water spray/submersion to subject exhaust components to thermal shock testing. Catalytic converter testing, and exhaust component testing to all OEM specifications. Hot Vibration testing on individual heavy duty components or vibration of entire aftertreatment assemblies is easily handled on our slip-tables.

Shock Absorber Durability and Shock Performance Testing

Numerous multi-shock test rigs each with load monitoring, stroke control, temperature control, and real-time load loss control. Each rig may be coupled with environmental conditions to simulate extreme cold or hot/humid. We use industry standard MTS software and all of our testing projects include a comprehensive test report complete with charts and graphs. There are laboratories that "can" test shock absorbers but we "specialize" in shock absorber testing with over 100,000 hours of shock absorber testing experience.

Check out a video of our services:

Mechanical Strength Testing


With the capability to perform mechanical strength tests exceeding 50,000 lbs and ability to control displacement, our mechanical testing lab can perform ultimate load testing on most vehicle components.

Mechanical Fatigue Testing


Fatigue testing at extreme temperatures with or without humidity provides our customers a way to truly simulate the vehicle environment. From isolators to shock absorbers, ATE is your complete source for fatigue testing needs.

Vibration Testing


Sine, random, sine-on-random, or shock - you provide the vibration profile and we'll execute it. With (9) electro-dynamic shaker systems ranging from 4,500 force-pounds to 20,000 force-pounds and up to 2" stroke, our vibration test lab can handle even the most demanding vibration test. Each vibration shaker can be coupled with a hot / cold / humidity-controlled environmental chamber or a propane burner for hot vibration testing.
