Atlas Material Testing Solutions
Atlas offers a wide range of evaluation and measurement services for our client's specimens during and after the weathering process. These services are available at Atlas' Miami, Florida and Phoenix, Arizona sites. Atlas uses the most advanced instrumentation from leading manufacturers for measuring appearance properties such as color change, gloss, distinctness-of-image, transmittance and reflectance. All of our services meet the latest measurement test standards from organizations such as ASTM, ISO, DIN and others. A full range of visual assessment services is also available, including coating adhesion, blistering, chalking, cracking, mildew growth, and gray scale evaluation in accordance with respective standards' organizations. Temperature monitoring programs are provided for single and multiple specimens under any type of exposure, as well as for large assemblies such as complete vehicles. Strict quality control guidelines have enabled Atlas' Evaluations Laboratory to achieve industry-accepted accreditation from world renowned standards' organizations. Atlas is accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 by the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA) and accredited or approved by Ford, GM and AMECA.

Fluorescent / Accelerated UV Testing
UVTest
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
Fluorescent UV lamps, similar in mechanical and electrical characteristics to those used for residential and commercial lighting, have been developed with specific spectral distributions. These sources are incorporated into fluorescent UV condensation devices such as the Atlas UVTest. These devices may be used in tests that vary light/dark cycles, temperature, condensing humidity, water sprays, and irradiance control.

Xenotest
220/220+
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
The Xenotest 220 and Xenotest 220+ are large capacity lightfastness testers dedicated for textile testing. They come with premium on-rack light and temperature sensor and non-aging optical filter technology. With the ability to test 38 samples, the 220 Series provides nearly twice as much capacity in the same footprint compared to 150S+. The combination of its large test chamber and the efficient use of power and water make it today‘s most economic air-cooled instrument available. It complies to standards ISO 105 B02, AATCC TM16 (option 3), and Marks & Spencer C9, C9A.

MHG Solar Simulation
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
Filtered MHG lighting is a mature technology used since the 80’s for larger solar simulators inside environmental test chambers. MHG lamps are filled with a mixture of mercury, halides and rare earth elements which vaporize during ignition, generating a plasma. After a few minutes, the plasma reaches thermal equilibrium and emits a quasi-continuous spectrum (when properly filtered) similar to global solar radiation.

Custom Solar Simulation
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
Solar heat load effects are critical with respect to product functionality, operational performance, thermal management, noise and dimensional stability. Therefore, any new product made from different materials and components should be tested under solar environmental conditions representative of those locations in which it will exist - anywhere ranging from the heat of the Australian Outback to the frigid climate of arctic regions.
