A package of services for pressure equipment made of composite and hybrid materials
Cetim experts have designed a package of services to provide support to companies from the design to the operational monitoring of pressure equipment made of composite and hybrid materials.
For a few years now, Cetim has been an innovation centre in the field of composite and hybrid materials as well as a technical advisor in the design and inspection of pressure equipment. Today, Cetim offers a package with all these fields expertise in order to extend its offer. The purpose is to provide support to companies which plan to invest in the manufacturing and operation of pressure equipment made of composite and hybrid materials.
This “Pressure equipment made of composite and hybrid materials” package is flexible and can be easily adapted to the strategy of companies. It covers the entire lifecycle from the analysis of the requirements (watch, integration of standards, expected performance, etc.) to on‑condition monitoring in service, and also includes the search for innovative concepts, the technical and economic feasibility studies, the design and dimensioning of the selected solution, the manufacturing of a prototype, the qualification tests and the support for the industrialisation process. The targeted markets for this package are: the energy sector, the chemical and petrochemical industry, the transport sector, the medical sector, etc.
This new offer is based on concrete resources: a design office for the design of the pressure equipment and for structure simulations, a filament winding platform to make large-dimension parts, a multi-material assembling platform, a bursting pit for pressure testing, platforms for the various Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) technologies, a material characterisation laboratories dedicated to composite materials, etc. Cetim is also a partner of Technocampus Composites in Nantes (France).
For this new revolution in the mechanical sector, all experts and resources in Cetim have been mobilised: regulations, material characterisation, behaviour laws, design, simulation, assembling, prototype manufacturing, testing, qualification, NDT, advising, financing, etc.
