Our Thermal Vacuum Chamber (TVAC) facilities are designed to support environmental testing and validation of space components under simulated temperature and presssure conditions. The infrastructure enables controlled thermal and vacuum testing for qualification, performance verification, and functional assessment of sensitive systems and assemblies.
The facilities include dedicated pumping systems, monitoring and control equipment, adaptable chamber configurations, and supporting laboratory infrastructure to ensure stable and repeatable test conditions. Our TVAC capabilities are available for external testing.
