The military has the most demanding thermal management requirements of any industry, including the broadest operating temperature ranges (-40°C to +60°C) and the most stringent reliability requirements.
These requirements drive a number of engineering complications in which our engineers are experienced, including shock and vibration, dust tolerance, salt fog, etc. Keeping military electronics under their maximum operating temperature within these challenging environments is often a key design requirement for our customers.
As a leader in defense-grade thermal management, ACT delivers solutions spanning air-cooled heat sinks, heat-pipe heat sinks, single-phase liquid-cooled systems and pumped two-phase liquid cooling systems — all engineered for strict MIL-STD compliance and SWaP-C (Size, Weight, Power & Cooling)-driven platforms.
Our rugged thermal systems are built to perform across extreme environments — from battlefield ground vehicles to high-altitude UAVs and deep-space platforms. With decades of experience in defense electronics cooling, ACT is your trusted partner for thermal R&D, system-level integration and high-reliability manufacturing.
