American Fusion completes initial Texatron test phase at Texas Tech University

American Fusion Inc. announced the successful completion of the initial phase of its Texatron™ Fusion Engine testing program at the Center for Emerging Energy Sciences, Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. A seven‑member American Fusion team worked with university staff to carry out subsystem demonstrations, high‑voltage operation in a vacuum environment, and extensive instrumentation testing.

Key achievements included the remote ignition and control system, plasma switching with non‑radioactive fusion fuel, and operation of the engine under high‑voltage conditions. Radiation monitoring showed "no measurable radiation was detected" during the tests, and a specialized high‑voltage power supply was designed, built, and validated. The data gathered will guide subsequent testing phases and technical publications for shareholders.
