📘 General Description
The CCT-NC Series is designed to perform accelerated corrosion testing under controlled conditions, complying with advanced test methods used by manufacturers such as Ford, Volvo, Toyota, and Honda. Its modular design allows functions and capabilities to be added or upgraded according to laboratory requirements.
Each chamber is engineered to reproduce the most demanding automotive and industrial environments while fully complying with global standards such as:
- ASTM G85 (Annex A5, Prohesion)
- GMW 14872
- Ford CETP 00.00-L-467
- SAE J2334
- Toyota TSH1555G
- ISO 16701 and ISO 14993
- Volkswagen PV 1210
- Volvo VCS 1027
- And many more
Whether validating coatings, fasteners, or components, Auto Technology’s Cyclic Corrosion Test Chamber provides repeatable, traceable, and certifiable testing conditions—the same chambers used in our own A2LA-accredited corrosion testing laboratory.
