Researching and developing two-phase thermal control technologies was ACT’s primary focus at inception. As the company has successfully transitioned those early R&D efforts into commercial product offerings, the R&D group has maintained strength in two-phase thermal control while helping to expand the company into many other areas of thermal management. ACT’s R&D team currently has approximately 40 team members, including 17 PhD, 4 MS, 4 BS level engineers.
Technology Advancements
Our R&D team prides itself in developing new thermal technologies and transitioning them to the market. As a result, ACT was awarded a Tibbetts Award in 2011. The Small Business Association (SBA) presents the Tibbetts awards nationally to small companies that have advanced technical innovation and economic growth through its Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program. In 2021, ACT surpassed $100M in revenues resulting from technologies that were originated from SBIR-seeded programs.
