In any of the several projects I’ve had to opportunity to work with AEI, their technical capability and flexibility allowed for the efficient investigation into areas of new science for my company and helped us reach practical solutions and resolution in the least amount of time. Their in-house machining and fabrication capability is excellent as is their technician and facility support. If we ever needed additional facility capability or resources, AEI always responded immediately and effectively. Their breadth of technical familiarity and practical approach to problem solving is an additional benefit in many ways that I found often went beyond the specific contract relationship. They went above and beyond. AEI is a solid, supportive, member of any project team and are there to help you succeed.

AEI’s versatile and capable Specialty cells for Cold and Altitude Climate testing of various fuel platforms allows myself and my team to test a variety of engines for development and tuning. The ability to go from an extreme cold condition to an extreme hot condition in either Specialty cells allows one to cover the full spectrum of temperatures ranges for Emissions and Mechanical limit compliancy. Because of this we are able to develop a more robust and superior product to be released for production. The support and willingness of AEI to help us tackle these tough challenges is one of the reason we keep coming back.
