Jackson and Tull specializes in advanced manufacturing processes. Our facilities combine design and packaging expertise with state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities. We produce spaceflight hardware along with a variety of other products. Manufacturing and design in our Aerospace and SAT divisions are ISO 9001:2000 certified and our facilities are NASA SPAR-3 compliant.

Our facility in Beltsville, Maryland is 18,000 square feet. In addition to a machine shop complete with CNC milling and lathe, this facility also provides Surface Mount Technology (SMT) oven/wave soldering and hand soldering. With full service assembly and test areas, 20” convention ovens, 18” wave solder machines, and a polymeric laboratory, Jackson and Tull possesses all the tools required for quality and complete manufacturing. All work performed is assessed and tested by certified inspectors. Jackson and Tull designed and built several key components onboard the Hubble Space Telescope, such as the new Advanced Computer which replaced the original computer.

Our Albuquerque, NM facility is 5000 square feet and is used during fabrication of large scale test components, as well as preparation for technology demonstrations. In addition, this facility also houses an EMI test facility.
