Special Purpose Machine and Pressure Test Bench

Expert in Pressure Control: Custom Machine Design and Manufacturing

Special Purpose Machine Designer for Over 50 Years

For over five decades, COMEX has been serving various industrial sectors (energy, defense, scientific research, marine, medical, etc.), designing and manufacturing custom test benches for specific needs. Our special purpose machines are distinguished by their unique features:
  • Totally manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic, integrated into a production line
  • Capable of withstanding tests at very high or very low pressures (from 1 x 10^-9 bar to over 2,000 bar)
  • Use of gas or fluids for pressurization
  • Conducting proof tests, cycling tests, aging tests, and burst tests, both under internal and external pressure/li>
  • Precise control of fluid and environmental temperature
  • Pressures regulated with very high precision
  • Integration into containment chambers for enhanced safety requirements
