London, U.K. – Element Materials Technology, a provider of aerospace and defense product qualification testing (PQT) services, is expanding its environmental testing capabilities at its Denver, Colorado, location. Its investment in a new thermal vacuum chamber complements existing thermal testing and bake-out capabilities.
The new capability allows clients to test to extreme temperatures and pressures, from cryogenic temperatures to 150°C, and pressures of up to 1 x 10-7 Torr. This includes both product qualification testing (PQT) of components and a range of materials testing (MT) services, including sterilization/decontamination for space applications.
Rick Sluiters, Element’s executive vice president, Aerospace, comments: “There is significant demand within the local aerospace market for more extreme testing capabilities. Following this investment, we now have a fully comprehensive set of capabilities in environmental testing demonstrating our commitment to the aerospace and defense supply chain. Element’s technical expertise is such that very few organizations are able to provide this type of service, with the requisite level of quality control and project management demanded in the sector.”
Element’s Pacific Northwest locations provide a full range of environmental testing capabilities to RTCA DO-160, MIL-STD 810 and ISO/IEC 17025:2005 standards, as well as holding a number of aerospace prime and supply chain approvals.
