Technical expertise

The SINERGI(A) tool, an industrial incident simulator, enables the modelling of the most frequent incidents occurring in the three main categories: fires, explosions and toxicity.

SINERGI(A) assesses the environmental impact of any ongoing incident, as well as modelling the operational response of teams in the field. It can therefore be used both as a training tool for industrial risk management and as a decision-support tool in operational management.

The days when instrumentation required skills in pneumatics and micromechanics are long gone – who still remembers the classic nozzle-flapper? Being an instrumentation specialist today calls for a wide range of skills: fluid dynamics, signal processing, automation, electrical engineering, real-time computing, cybersecurity and safety.

Measuring, controlling, automating and monitoring are essential levers for enhancing the efficiency, quality and safety of industrial production, using PLCs for batch processes and ICSS (Integrated Control and Safety Systems) for continuous processes.

The classical fields of telecommunications (telephony, networks, Wi-Fi, radio, VSAT) incorporate, in the industrial environment, what we commonly refer to as low-current systems: CCTV, PAGA, access control, intrusion detection, entertainment, and now also cloud services and cybersecurity.

An industrial HVAC engineer must combine technical expertise (design, sizing), in-depth knowledge of standards and an innovative mindset to guarantee safety, performance and long-term sustainability.

The scope of mechanical engineering is very broad:design (CAD/CAE, strength calculations, simulation), production (manufacturing processes (machining, welding), industrialisation), management (project management, maintenance, standards (ISO, CE) and safety) and innovation (automation, robotics, IoT and eco-design).
