intec - Integrated Technologies Inc.
As an advanced materials center, Intec's focus includes material testing (full-scale to simple QC testing), engineering and manufacturing of aerospace parts, fixtures, and tooling, and limited production thermoplastic engineered containers.
These systems include metal & organic matrix composites (thermosets and thermoplastics), aluminum, steel, Invar, TiGr, and titanium. Intec has extensive aerospace experience in the prototyping and production of advanced materials manufacturing, machining, and testing. The application of emergent material and technology has been the common technological thread that runs through Intec as illustrated by our long-term involvement in programs like NASA's HSR program, the ACT and JSF projects, the low-cost application of technology in Boeing/Bell BB609 "Tilt Rotor" TiGr® Engine Nacelle Door, Intel's thermal steering and management and Orbital Science's low cost Cruise Missile Development Program.
