Design and Engineering
Voss
application engineers are prepared to help solve your specific needsfrom
product inception, through manufacturing, to customer support. We
can produce parts from your prints or we can do the design and development
work for you. Voss also has complete project management capabilities
or can work directly with a prime contractor. More importantly,
Voss had the experience, expertise, and R & D capability to
help meet your unique component design requirements.

Tooling, Prototyping and Testing
Being
able to produce high quality components time after time is due primarily
to Voss's total in-house design, tooling, prototyping, and testing
capabilities.
Voss
uses the latest in CAD,CNC machines and Wire EDM to design and produce any
special tooling required. When product designs are finalized, prototypes
are developed to exact specifications and then subjected to product
and qualification testing. |

|
Metalography material and Micro Hardness (KNOOP) testing. |
| Primary Usage:
Qualification
and/or evaluation of prototype and production parts; metallographic
material examination and material testing. |
|
Test Stand Capabilities:
Temperatures
to 1500° F; pneumatic pressures to 2500 psi
Test
stand is computer controlled and continuously monitored permitting
unattended round-the-clock testing.
Test
stand is capable of simultaneous pressure and flexure (bending moment)
cycling under room or elevated temperature conditions, while periodically
checking joint integrity via leakage measurement.

|
Controlled
environment pressure and
flexure cycling test stands. |
| Test and Evaluation Capabilities:
Hydraulic
pressure testing to 10,000 psi; micro hardness testing; metallographic
and macro material examination; stress rupture test (constant load/elevated
temperature); fatigue testing (cyclic loading). |
