We provide fast-turn environmental and mechanical testing for small assemblies, prototypes, and production components. We help engineers get real test data quickly—without the backlog and delays of large commercial labs.
Engineering-led environmental testing for prototype and pre-production validation.
Now accepting early projects – limited capacity during lab ramp-up.
Ideal for prototype testing, small assemblies, and pre-compliance work.
Fast turnaround (days not weeks)
Small batch testing
Engineering level support

Located in mid-Michigan, we provide hands-on environmental testing services for engineering teams who need fast answers— not long lab queues or scheduling delays.
We support prototype testing, small electronics and PCB assemblies, design validation, and failure investigation.
What We Test
- Shock & mechanical impact (drop + programmed shock)
- Vibration (sine and random profiles)
- Temperature & humidity cycling
- Altitude / vacuum testing
Pre-Compliance Testing
- Identify failure modes before certification
- Reduce risk of costly redesigns
- Validate designs before sending to large labs
- Iterate quickly with engineering feedback
