Technologies
The CEDRAT Group is one of the world's leading groups in smart actuators, sensors, mechatronics and detection systems.
From its standard mechatronic products and its broad electric engineering capabilities, the CEDRAT Group recommends the use of its "technology bricks" as starting points for the development of a fast customised solution.
"Technology bricks" are new technical concepts that have been tested by the CEDRAT Group in R&D projects and which are of particular interest for new applications. Generally, they have been experimentally validated by technical staff leading to proof-of-concepts or full prototypes. In some cases they are covered by IP and so license agreements have to be arranged.
These "technology bricks" can be adapted to build customised products quickly, with reduced costs and risks for the customer.
