ATI has an extensive background in the design, analysis, fabrication and development of full and sub-scale advanced composite and metal rotor blades and precision machined rotor systems for both experimental and FAA testing. ATI has designed and fabricated several full-scale static and dynamic indoor and outdoor display models and mockups of advanced aircraft and helicopters. Our work validates engineering design and supportability analysis as well as supporting major marketing media presentations.

Since our creation in 1988 Advanced Technologies, Inc. has contributed significantly to the advancement of research and applications in the aerospace industry. Advanced Technologies, Inc. offers competitive salary and benefits with challenging employment opportunities. Newport News, Virginia is a city of more than 185,000 residents, is at the mid-point of the Atlantic Coast and at the center of the Hampton Roads metropolitan region.
ATI has developed many full-scale experimental rotor blades. Previous designs have included tip-jet propulsion devices, piezoelectric and mechanically actuated trailing edge flaps, shape-memory alloy twist-actuators, and active/passive flow-control mechanisms. Blade geometries have included non-linear and high-twist distributions, anhedral/dihedral tips, swept tips (both forward and aft), and variable chord/thickness distributions to name a few. We have developed full-scale blades less than 12 inches long (on UAV applications) to over 30 feet.
ATI is an industry leader in producing sub-scale composite rotor-blades for performance or dynamic wind tunnel testing. Design of sub-scale composite blades often requires the use of significantly lighter/thinner materials and, as a result, can be even more challenging than developing full-scale composite blades.
