CEDRAT TECHNOLOGIES is involved in several national or international collaborative projects like FP7, Eureka, FUI, ANR and so on.
We bring to the consortiums our engineering skills on mechatronic, piezoelectricity, electromagnetism, magnetostrictive and so on. In the same time this fruitfull collaborations with industrial and a academic partners allows us to overcome technical limitations and develops innovative products or technologic bricks.
You will find here some examples on representative and interresting projects:
