Why can vibration become amplified at one frequency and remain controlled at another?

The answer is in how the structure naturally responds.

Erosion resistance depends on more than the material alone.

The particles involved, their velocity and angle of impact, exposure time, and surface condition can all affect the resulting material loss. Microspot erosion testing helps evaluate that response under controlled conditions.

What happens before a test ever produces a result?

A lot of careful, hands-on work.

Inside the ITS lab, fixtures are prepared, specimens are positioned, instrumentation is placed, and the full setup is verified before data collection begins.

It is a part of testing most people never see. For the ITS team, it is where attention to detail builds confidence in everything that follows.

A standard gives a test a common method. A quality system ensures the work behind the result can be traced and understood.

From calibrated equipment and documented conditions to consistent procedures and reporting, each control helps turn test data into information engineers can use with confidence.

This World Standards Day, ITS recognizes the standards and quality practices supporting credible testing across industries.

Small improvements over time can create a much larger impact. That mindset is important to our newest Test Engineer, Henry Campopiano.

Henry joins ITS with a mechanical engineering degree from Lafayette College and experience in CAD design, system testing, and manufacturing improvement.

Outside the lab, his interests include mountain biking, rock climbing, sailing, working on his car, and 3D printing. Please help us welcome Henry to the ITS team.

The vibration going in may look manageable. The structure’s response can tell a different story.

When excitation approaches a natural frequency, the resulting motion can become much greater than the input amplitude suggests. Modal analysis reveals the natural frequencies, mode shapes, and damping characteristics behind that response.

That bright spot is doing more than heating a sample.

Inside the ITS lab, JETS testing recreates the rapid temperature changes and intense thermal conditions experienced by coatings used in turbines and aeroengines.

The team carefully controls temperatures across the specimen to evaluate how the coating and its interface respond to thermal stress over time.

There is a lot of work behind every advancement in manufacturing.

Testing, measurement, and engineering help transform new ideas into materials and components that are better understood and ready for their next stage.

This Manufacturing Day, we are proud to recognize the people doing that work every day.

The tolerance is on the drawing. The measurement proves whether the part meets it.

ITS uses precision measuring equipment to compare physical components against their design requirements, identify dimensional variation, and provide accurate, traceable results.

When small deviations can affect fit or performance, every measurement matters.
