🌊 This month, our CSR Committee is spotlighting Lancaster Conservancy and the 10th Annual Lancaster Water Week!

Water Week showcases the streams and rivers that sustain Lancaster County while raising awareness about the efforts underway to restore and protect these important waterways.

Whether you're looking to explore the outdoors, learn something new, or make a difference in your community, there's an event for everyone during Water Week.

If you’re heading to PCIM and working on a design that’s pushing the limits of standard air or liquid cooling—come find us.

Our booth won’t focus on catalogs or standardized offerings.

Instead, we’ll be sharing real, customer-driven solutions—each one developed in response to constraints where standard approaches no longer provided enough confidence on their own.

đź“Ť Hall 4, Booth 4-237 | Bring your constraints.

Yvonne Brill revolutionized how satellites maintain their position in orbit. Today, ACT’s very own Heather Keller helps ensure they actually survive the journey.

Operating in deep space means enduring a violent thermal paradox—cycling between absolute zero in the shadows and blistering solar radiation in direct sunlight. Without precise, thermal regulation, critical communications components would fail instantly.

As a Manufacturing Engineer II at ACT, Heather Keller manufactures and validates our Constant Conductance Heat Pipes (CCHPs). These pull heat away from high-flux electronics, allowing modern satellites and space vehicles to operate flawlessly for decades.

"In space flight, you don't get a second chance to fix a design mistake," says Heather. "Every component we build has to withstand absolute extremes. It’s incredibly rewarding to know our work is quietly supporting the next generation of space exploration."

Progress doesn't happen on ambition alone. It relies on the engineering layer most people never see.

🛰️ Honeycomb sandwich panels look simple from the outside.

Inside, they're a carefully engineered combination of face sheets, film adhesive, honeycomb core, and embedded features that all contribute to overall performance.

In this episode of Engineers with Markers, Nicolas Rutkoski breaks down the anatomy of a honeycomb panel and explains the role each component plays in the final assembly.

Watch to learn about:
• Face sheets, film adhesive, and honeycomb core
• Material selection considerations
• Embedded features like CCHPs, internal doublers, and corefill

What aspect of honeycomb panel design would you like us to cover next?

In the 1960s, early commercial satellites faced a crippling physical limit: they kept drifting out of alignment. Standard thrusters required too much heavy, prohibitive fuel, and extreme solar heat fluxes threatened sensitive onboard electronics.

Enter rocket scientist Yvonne Brill.

She single-handedly invented the electrothermal hydrazine thruster—a breakthrough that allowed satellites to keep their precise orbital positions using a single, lightweight propellant. Her work didn't just solve a weight and fuel issue; it unlocked the modern satellite communications architecture we rely on today.

Every major leap in space exploration has an invisible layer of infrastructure beneath it. Before a mission can succeed, engineers have to conquer the laws of physics.

This month, leading up to America’s Semiquincentennial, we are honoring the pioneers who solved the practical bottlenecks of progress. Stay tuned as we introduce the modern stewards continuing this legacy right here at ACT.

Space electronics are being pushed harder than ever — higher power densities, tighter SWaP constraints, and harsher radiation environments. Traditional aluminum shielding adds mass, but not necessarily the thermal performance modern systems need.

ACT’s latest work explores a dual-layer polymer composite that combines:
• Radiation attenuation for COTS electronics
• In-plane heat spreading for hotspot mitigation
• Lightweight, conformal integration for compact spacecraft architectures

The result: a multifunctional shielding approach designed to improve both radiation tolerance and thermal management in orbit.

For thermal engineers, this opens new possibilities for managing localized heat while supporting next-gen space electronics in LEO, cislunar, and deep-space missions.

AI data center liquid cooling is moving from technical evaluation to production planning.
That shift changes the question. It is no longer only: "Can the cold plate perform?"

It's also:
- Can it be manufactured repeatedly?
- Can quality hold at volume?
- Can supply align with deployment timelines?
- Can the partner scale before demand becomes a bottleneck?

ACT’s cold plate manufacturing expansion is designed around that reality.
Not reactive. Planned. Engineered to scale.
