Accelerated Life Testing (ALT)

Accelerated Life Testing (ALT) is a method used to evaluate how long a product will last under normal use by exposing it to higher-than-normal stress conditions, such as increased temperature, humidity, or vibration. These intensified conditions speed up aging and wear, allowing engineers to predict the product’s lifespan more quickly than with regular testing. ALT helps identify potential failure points and improve durability without waiting years for real-time results, ultimately ensuring products are reliable and meet quality standards before reaching consumers.
