The emergence of electric vehicles challenged traditional production leak test methods and procedures. Cincinnati Test Systems was able to learn and grow to develop new products and processes to address this emerging market. Additionally, power electronics enclosures are formed using cast aluminum or formed sheet metal assemblies.
Surgical Robotics presents a scale problem: how can you source the large, aluminum structural components that make up the robot itself, as well as the small, stainless steel endoscopic and laparoscopic tools being used in patient-contact areas? And how are these suppliers managed from a compliance standpoint? Avocet works on scaled solutions to custom engineered metals at both ends of this spectrum.
From cast aluminum battery enclosures to sheet metal brackets and retainers, aerospace companies require engineering parts to be produced with minimal mass yet maximum strength. Avocet represents companies that are AS9100 Certified, ITAR Compliant and Nadcap Accredited
