Rapid Prototypes
Rapid Prototypes

The rugged computing industry is constantly evolving and changing, so it is essential that Crystal Group has the capability to remain agile to solve our customer's most daunting challenges. About one year ago, we expanded our engineering department by adding the Advanced Program Pursuits (APP) team. This team is primarily responsible for the design and development of prototypes with unique requirements and short timelines. Ranging from rugged servers to suitcase computers, the APP team is able to design and build our customer's wildest imagination, all on an extremely short timeline.

Industrial Series
Industrial Series

Demanding industrial applications, like construction, oil and gas, mining, and power substations, require Crystal Group’s rugged industrial solutions to integrate compute power, speed, accuracy, and security into systems proven to deliver seamless operation in the most punishing, ever-changing conditions.

We’re here to solve your most difficult edge compute challenges

Our integrated solutions are tailored to meet your exact needs while managing SWaP efficiency and eliminating uncertainty and complexity. With the agility to collaborate swiftly, we incorporate emerging technologies, cybersecurity, environmental performance and unique requirements so you always have the latest, most reliable systems to achieve today’s objectives for tomorrow’s success.

Rugged

Unlike traditional compute devices, our chassis are milled from aircraft-grade aluminum while components are protected and stabilized using proprietary techniques. Engineered to exceed strict military and industrial standards, our products are field-tested and proven to deliver seamless performance and success in any domain, in any conditions.

Reliable

Trusted by industry leaders, the U.S. Department of Defense and global allies, our systems are deployed on more than 650 applications worldwide. Unparalleled quality and performance are backed by ISO9001:2016/AS9100D certifications, 24/7 global support and a five-year warranty to ensure products perform without fail when safety, accuracy and efficiency are paramount.

Scalable

As new programs emerge or existing needs evolve, so do our solutions. The combined power of our flexible designs, COTS components, vertically integrated services, modern factory, and ecosystem of revered technology partners give us the speed and agility to collaborate swiftly and deliver tailored solutions on schedule.

Secure

From Root of Trust hardware to data-in-motion protection, we take the complexity out of cybersecurity and accreditation. Confidential data stays secure with solutions that incorporate the optimal combination of intrusion detection, instant data destruction, FIPS 140-2 SAS drives, NIAP-certified hardware, IPsec and MACsec switches, key encryption and management software.

Rugged that works

You can’t compromise on quality or performance when operating in edge environments. Our engineers have perfected critical system design elements to optimize operational life, performance and reliability to give you an edge when you need it most.

Rugged chassis

Milled, not bent, 6061T651 aircraft-grade aluminum exterior and interior support structures are bonded and fastened to base plates. This enhances vibration performance, limits weight, and improves thermal and electrical conductivity. Non-hexavalent chromate coatings maintain electrical conductivity for low impedance interfaces.

Advanced thermal management

We specialize in solving the toughest thermal-management challenges to optimize performance and operational life by protecting critical components and systems from hot and cold temperature extremes.

Shock isolation and vibration resilience

Systems are meticulously designed and developed to withstand extreme levels of shock and vibration with purpose-built solutions that meet or exceed military specifications.

Rigorous performance standards

We design and test our systems to meet or exceed IEEE 1613, IEC 61850 and military standards, cybersecurity protections and program requirements. As standards are updated, so are our designs, work instructions and test procedures.
