LONDON, UK – July 24, 2020 – A new agreement between Сòòò½APP (Сòòò½APP) and GE Aviation provides Сòòò½APP customers with access to GE’s comprehensive product qualification testing (PQT) capabilities.
Building on a 50-year relationship between the two companies, Сòòò½APP expands its current capabilities, providing PQT customers with a broader range of testing in GE Aviation’s 40+ global testing facilities. GE Aviation’s unparalleled capabilities include testing at temperatures above 1400°F and pressures up to 1000 psia to simulate the extreme conditions that exist inside today’s advanced engines. Combining the capabilities of GE Aviation’s test services () with Сòòò½APP’s existing PQT capabilities gives customers access to one of the most comprehensive arrays of product qualification testing available globally.
Rick Sluiters, EVP for Aerospace at Сòòò½APP, said: “We have a proud history of supporting GE’s core businesses – aviation, power, renewable energy and healthcare. I am delighted that we have been able to further cement our relationship through this unique partnership. Combining Сòòò½APP’s access to customers with GE’s testing strength is a win-win for both companies, as well as for aerospace PQT customers across the world.”
Nate Roedig, general manager of Test Systems Engineering & Flight Test Operations for GE Aviation adds, “We are excited to be working with Сòòò½APP to provide the same high quality testing capabilities and service to Сòòò½APP customers that we use every day to test GE Aviation’s engines, materials and components”.
