Advanced Composite Materials (ACM) Testing
National Technical Systems (NTS)
Advanced Composite Materials (ACMs) have broad, proven applications, in the aircraft, aerospace, and sports equipment sectors. Even more specifically ACMs are very attractive for aircraft and aerospace structural parts. ACMs have been developing for NASA’s Advanced Space Transportation Program, armor protection for Army aviation and the Federal Aviation Administration of the U.S.A., and high-temperature shafting for the Comanche helicopter. Additionally, ACMs have decades of history in military and government aerospace industries. However, much of the new technology is now being developed for secondary or commercial markets, and the technology of advanced composites manufacture is continually evolving.

Materials Testing
The importance of materials testing cannot be underestimated. Across every major industry, manufacturers, developers and operators of critically important systems, products and components need to be assured that the materials employed in forming their equipment are up to their intended tasks. That’s why the most diligent method of verifying that the materials companies use in manufacturing processes will perform to expectations and adhere to all applicable regulations is through reliable materials testing.
