In the field of hardware development, speed is important—but accuracy and repeatability are essential. For hardware startups working with limited budgets and lab space, having the ability to validate products in-house is no longer a luxury, but a practical necessity. Environmental testing, once considered exclusive to large labs and established manufacturers, is now available in benchtop format—without compromising on performance.
LIB’s benchtop environmental chamber series provides startups and small teams with reliable, full-featured testing capabilities that fit both their budget and their workspace.
Benchtop environmental chambers—also referred to as tabletop environmental chambers —are designed to simulate a wide range of environmental conditions such as temperature cycling, humidity exposure, and thermal shock. LIB’s models, available in 50L and 80L volumes, deliver lab-grade performance while only occupying a workspace as small as 2㎡.

All models feature insulated construction, efficient airflow design, and quiet operation suitable for indoor lab environments.
Startups often rely on contract labs for environmental testing. While feasible, this approach has downsides—long lead times, expensive fees, and limited control over test parameters. With LIB’s benchtop environmental chambers, startups can perform iterative testing in-house, speeding up the development cycle and reducing per-test costs.
Common use cases include:
Consumer Electronics: Stress-testing device casings and battery performance in fluctuating temperatures.
Medical Devices: Verifying functionality of wearable or implantable components under physiological temperature and humidity.
Battery R&D: Evaluating micro-battery performance across temperature extremes and cycling patterns.
IoT and Agritech: Simulating outdoor field environments for sensor modules.
Having a chamber in-house allows teams to test and adjust within hours instead of waiting days or weeks for outsourced reports.
Small labs don’t always have reinforced flooring, industrial-grade power supplies, or plumbing access. LIB benchtop chambers are designed with those realities in mind:
no special electrical setup required.
Compact footprint—can be placed on standard lab tables.
Modular design—easily moved or upgraded as the lab expands.
This makes them suitable for early-stage labs, research institutions, university teams, and even shared workspaces or innovation hubs.
Despite the compact size, LIB benchtop chambers come with features typically found in larger systems:
High-resolution touchscreen controller
Programmable test profiles
Multi-point temperature and humidity sensors
Remote monitoring and alert options
All LIB chambers are built according to recognized standards such as IEC 60068, ASTM D4332, and MIL-STD-810, ensuring that test results are reliable, traceable, and acceptable for most certification workflows.
Unlike entry-level lab equipment that becomes obsolete as requirements increase, LIB chambers are designed for scalability. Their modular internal layout, robust build, and serviceable components allow them to grow with your needs. As your product line expands or testing becomes more sophisticated, you can continue using LIB equipment—or move up to larger LIB chambers without retraining or changing platforms.
In hardware development, the ability to simulate real-world environments quickly and repeatedly is critical to product quality. LIB’s benchtop environmental chambers offer startups a reliable, affordable, and space-efficient solution that brings environmental testing in-house—without compromise.
Whether you’re building medical wearables, sensor modules, or next-gen batteries, LIB chambers help you move faster and test smarter.
