Environmental test chambers · built in Allegan, Michigan
Hanse Environmental designs and builds combined thermal and vibration chambers for HALT and HASS, and the six-degree-of-freedom repetitive shock vibration systems inside them. Twelve standard VTC models, TC thermal chambers and standalone vibration systems in the same table sizes, and custom equipment built to your specification.
*Measured 4" above center of table, −65 °C to +100 °C.
†VTC-4 and up. The VTC-1 and VTC-1.5 run −75 to +175 °C as standard (−100/+200 °C optional); the VTC-1 is 50 °C/min (100 °C/min optional).
What we build
VTC series · Vibration Thermal Chamber
Fast product temperature change and 6-DoF vibration in the same chamber, so one machine runs both HALT and HASS. Twelve standard models share the same architecture and control system.
VS standalone · VK kit
Patented six-degree-of-freedom tables driven by pneumatic actuators, as a ready-to-run standalone system with a sound enclosure, or as a kit to build into a chamber you already own.
TC series · Thermal Chamber
The VTC thermal system without the vibration table, for fast temperature cycling and thermal screening when you do not need six-degree-of-freedom vibration.
*Measured 4" above center of table, −65 °C to +100 °C. The thermal chamber photo shows a VTC-32 with its doors closed: TC chambers use the same thermal system.
Custom chambers and support
When a standard model doesn't fit, we build one that does. We use common, off-the-shelf industrial parts wherever we can, so the equipment stays serviceable for decades.
Why Hanse
Hanse supports every system it has built, with upgrades and retrofits when original parts run out, including controller retrofits for older systems.
Three years on vibrators and vibration tables. One year on the equipment from shipment: parts and labor for the first 90 days, then parts at no cost other than travel.
We build with Watlow controllers, SMC pneumatics and other industry-standard components rather than proprietary parts.
Temperature and vibration profiles run through ChamberCore, control software developed by Hanse.
Designed, fabricated and supported in the US since 1993. John K. Hanse founded Allegan Environmental in 1989 and established Hanse Environmental in 1993.
