Brazilian EMC bench opens to commercial testing as certification demand rises
A research-council facility with spare capacity, at a moment when electrified aircraft are multiplying test requirements.

An electromagnetic compatibility bench operated by a Brazilian research council is being offered for commercial testing. It was built for satellite payload qualification and runs well below capacity.
Demand is rising because electrified propulsion and higher-power cabin systems multiply the interference cases an aircraft must clear. European and North American EMC slots are booked months out.
For Latin American suppliers the appeal is proximity and currency. For suppliers elsewhere it is availability, which increasingly outweighs day rate.
What to watch: whether the facility secures aerospace-specific accreditation rather than general EMC scope. That single credential decides whether airframers will accept its data.
