Cedrat Technologies

Corporate presentation

Cedrat Technologies (CTEC) is a high-tech SME involving more than 70 employees based in the French Innovation Valley, close to Grenoble.

CTEC is specialized in the following domains:

  • Smart Actuators: Actuators & motors based on piezoelectric ceramics, electroactive polymers, ultrasonic effects, magnetostrictive alloys, magnetorheological fluids (MRF) & magnetic effects (moving coils, moving iron …); Applications: micro nano positioning, damping, vibration generation, acoustic transducers, micro actuators …
  • Smart Sensors: Magnetic, magnetoresistive, magnetostrictive, piezoelectric sensors, transformers, or generators; Force, Torque, Position, Speed, Acceleration sensors, including contactless sensors & resonant sensors.
  • Mechatronic systems: Multi-degree-of-freedom mechanisms (XY stages, fast steering mirrors; tip tilts); motion control; Active damping of Vibrations; Vibration (Ultrasonic or sonic) assistance to process; Proportional valves; Fast injectors
  • Detection systems: Health monitoring; NDT using magnetic or acoustic effects; Remote detection systems for position, force, torque remote measurements.
  • Technological training courses: CTEC provides comprehensive training courses dedicated to engineers and technicians who wish to discover, improve, or recover their knowledge in mechatronic products, systems, and technologies.

Backed by years of experience, CTEC’s extensive R&D activity is conducted by a multidisciplinary team of experts. Its laboratories are equipped with a complete library of engineering software and specialized measurement apparatus.

Between the standard products and the customized solutions, CTEC provides existing building blocks to move quicker from specifications to a complete optimized design and evaluated prototypes.

Widely applied for precise and rapid actuation, optics, instrumentation and control of vibrations, mechatronic products based on smart materials meet the most stringent specifications for aerospace and industry.

Role in the Project

Cedrat Technologies will participate in the development of dynamic beam shaping using Fast Steering Mirror (FSM) technology to compensate for pulse travel when using a micro-drilling process.

Cedrat Technologies will integrate a sensor for the Fast Steering Mirror (FSM) positioning to increase the monitoring of the beam shaping, and use an Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator (APA) to regulate the control focus of the process to ensure the good quality of the micro-drilling.
