American Fusion Inc. Obtains Texas Certificate for Texatron Fusion Engine Research and Development
Anonymous
American Fusion Inc. (OTC: AMFN) has received an official Certificate for Industrial Radiation Machines from the Texas Department of State Health Services, clearing the way for the next phase of its Texatron™ Fusion Engine™ research program, according to Globe Newswire. The certificate was issued on July 17, 2026, and remains valid through February 28, 2034.
The Southlake, Texas-based company will conduct its research at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. The certification formally authorizes American Fusion to receive, possess, and use registered industrial radiation machines for research and development purposes, AP News reported.
What the Texas Certificate Actually Authorizes
The certificate is issued under the Texas Radiation Control Act. It also falls under Chapter 289 of the Texas Administrative Code. These rules govern how companies can safely handle radiation-producing equipment. The approval covers specific serial number ranges tied to each registered research system, according to Globe Newswire.
The company must follow its own submitted operating procedures and shielding plans to stay compliant. Shielding refers to protective barriers that block harmful radiation from escaping a test area. The certification locks in those safety standards for the full eight-year term.
Dr. Brandenburg Named Radiation Safety Officer for Texatron Program
The registration identifies Dr. John E. Brandenburg as the company's Radiation Safety Officer, ADVFN reported. That role carries legal responsibility for making sure all radiation work follows state rules. Brandenburg is a known figure in fusion and plasma physics research.
Having a named safety officer is a required step under Texas law before any radiation machine work can begin. It signals that the program has cleared a key regulatory hurdle. The company can now move forward with hands-on testing at the Texas Tech facility.
Texatron Fusion Engine Steps Closer to Active Testing
The Texatron™ Fusion Engine™ is American Fusion's core product. Fusion energy works by joining atoms together to release power — the same process that fuels the sun. The company trades on the OTC market under the ticker AMFN and is in the research and development stage, according to Barchart.
Getting state approval to operate radiation machines is a major step for any fusion research program. It means the company can now run live experiments, not just simulations. The Texas Tech location gives American Fusion access to a university research environment for its testing work.
Eight-Year Certification Window Opens Long Research Runway
The certificate runs from July 2026 all the way to February 28, 2034 — nearly eight years. That long window gives American Fusion a stable legal framework to run experiments without seeking repeated re-approvals. It also suggests the company plans a multi-year R&D push on the Texatron system, according to Globe Newswire.
For a small OTC-listed company, state-level regulatory approval can be a meaningful milestone. It shows that an independent government body reviewed the company's safety plans and equipment. Investors and researchers will now watch for data coming out of the Texas Tech testing site.
