I would like to perform accelerated life testing on stepper motors (several sizes) to try to understand the expected operational life of each. Are there accelearation factors for (temperature, humidity, vibration) that apply to this type of device? Any suggestions (testing to perform) to try to understand time to failure would be appreciated.
