• AUCOTEAM Testlab

Corrosive testing

The AUCOTEAM test laboratory conducts corrosive testing using salt spray mist, corrosive gas – constant and cyclical, condensation and splash water in its accredited test laboratory.

Automotive, rail, aviation, shipping, medical technology, agricultural machinery, construction machinery, commercial vehicles or general industry – we shoulder responsibility for the weak spot analysis and sampling of products throughout the development phase for manufacturers, including the establishment of testing plans and the offering of advisory services. Your advantage with the AUCOTEAM test laboratory: Our wealth of experience as well as fast and cost-effective project processing.

We test resistance against:

  • Salt spray mist (constant and cyclical)
  • Salt spray with road gritting salt
  • Corrosive gas in cooperation
  • Condensation – consistent climate
  • Condensation with alternating climate
  • Corrosive gas / mixed gas testing (in cooperation)

Our salt spray fog chambers comply with the highest manufacturer requirements.

Assessment / evaluation of coating systems and corrosion damage:

  • Degree of rusting
  • Degree of blistering
  • Degree of tearing
  • Degree of flaking
  • Corrosion infiltration in scratch

  • Cross-cut (adhesion strength)
  • Tear-off test (adhesion strength)
  • Coating thickness measurement using the magnetic induction and eddy current method
  • Scratch resistance with hardness tester
