Here’s just a small selection of what our clients say about working with Woodruff Engineering:

Elie Track, PhD, FIEEE, NGC Mission Systems
Custom Helmholtz Coils

“When we needed a custom designed set of Helmholtz coils, Woodruff Scientific provided the best analysis, inspired confidence, and worked collaboratively to optimize the design for our needs and deliver it on time and on budget. The combination of fundamental physics understanding, practical engineering, and an eye for good economics, made them our preferred choice”

Frank Hoffmann, Princeton University Plasma Physics Laboratory
Pulsed Power Capacitor Bank Design

“Princeton University contracted WSI to design the capacitor banks for the FLARE experiment that is being built at PPPL. In my role of power electronics control engineer I was the main technical point of contact at PPPL.The contract included circuit simulations, dimensioning of components, design of the control system, as well as the creation of the electrical and mechanical design for all capacitor banks. Throughout the contract the collaboration with WSI was extremely fruitful. Throughout the work WSI provided creative and useful solutions for design challenges clearly showing that they had a deep understanding of the problem space and experience in providing solutions. Everybody at WSI was very committed to keep the project moving forward and on schedule, even though that meant a number a long days (and nights). I will definitely keep WSI in mind for other projects that require prototype/first article design and development.”

Dr. Scott Hsu, P 24 Plasma Physics Group, Los Alamos National Laboratory
Vacuum compatible Helmholtz Coil

“Woodruff Scientific designed and manufactured an in-vacuum Helmholtz coil and mounting structure to our specifications. We will be using the coils to generate an applied magnetic field for basic plasma physics and fusion-energy-science related experiments. Simon and his team were highly responsive to our needs and remained engaged and helpful even after the coils were delivered. Thank you very much!”

Charles A. Weatherford, Professor of Physics and Director of the Florida A&M University Center for Plasma Science and Technology 2013
Pulsed Power Plasma Experiment

“Woodruff Scientific Inc. constructed the Florida A&M University (FAMU)/Center for Plasma Science and Technology (CePaST) STPX (Spheromak Turbulent Plasma Experiment) under a subcontract funded by the U.S. Department of Energy… The STPX achieved plasma during the first attempt and CePaST is very pleased with the work performed by Woodruff Scientific Inc.”
