TRAD Tests & Radiation Assurance Services | APC Technology Group

TRAD Tests & Radiations and APC Technology Group sign UK distribution agreement

APC are pleased to offer its customers radiation assurance services for space, avionics, nuclear, medical and other harsh environment applications.

For more than 25 years, TRAD Tests & Radiation has been recognised for its unique expertise in the effects of radiation. For organisations looking to predict and minimise the effects of radiation on their products, TRAD offer a full range of services and products to meet all the requirements of the radiation insurance process or applicable standards.

With a core business of testing and analysing the effects of radiation on materials, components and electronic systems, TRAD have been supporting space agencies, satellite integrators, subsystem manufacturers and component manufactures around the world. In recent years, they have also supported the development of the nuclear sector across several regions.

"TRAD is excited about our new partnership with APC and we believe that this new adventure will expand the opportunities for both companies. This dynamic collaboration between APC’s expertise in high-reliability components and TRAD’s experience in Radiation Assurance Services will provide enhanced services for our clients in all sectors."

Nathalie Chatry | COO, TRAD Tests & Radiation

With its own, long heritage in the UK space sector, APC are excited to offer its customers this range of solutions to ensure project success.

"Whether a customer needs software tools to simulate an analyse radiation effects, needs spaceflight component or hardware rad testing services, or needs an off-the-shelf component which has some level of rad tolerance, TRAD offers a high-quality, economic solution. For customers particularly involved in New Space applications and new to the space business, TRAD is able to draw on its vast experience to propose innovative approaches to reduce costs, risk and time to market which would otherwise hamper success."

Richard Hough | Sales Director, High-Reliability Components and Power Supplies

Available by contacting APC’s high-reliability component team, customers can get support with their projects in the following areas:

  • Radiation engineering
  • Electronic component testing
  • Material testing
  • Modelling and analysis software
  • Radiation training

For those customers looking to build for New Space applications, APC will be offering TRAD’s Class 3+ certified range of R2COTS components. Removing the reliance of expensive Class 1, full hardened, qualified, and screened parts, TRAD’s Class 3+ certified parts offer the desired level of reliability and radiation tolerance at reduced costs and in higher production volumes. This is achieved using automotive COTS, AEC-Q qualified and Enhanced Product parts which have passed TRAD’s stringent irradiation tests.
