Presentation
At the intersection of research and industry, CETIM, a Carnot-labeled technological institute and a member of the Industry of the Future Alliance, is the French mechanical expertise center. As the R&D tool of 6,500 mechanical companies, it comprises a total of 1,100 personnel, including over 2/3 engineers and technicians, along with its associated centers and subsidiaries, achieving a turnover of €150 million. It extends its reach through a network of scientific and technical partners.
While CETIM maintains a strong presence close to its domestic clients, its industrial intervention capabilities extend internationally, particularly in French-speaking regions.
Its role as the driving force behind numerous innovative projects naturally positions it as the coordinator for major industrial or multi-partner R&D projects in five key areas: design, simulation, testing – manufacturing processes and materials – mechatronics, control and measurement – sustainable development – management and support for SMEs.
As an R&D partner alongside specialized major players, CETIM offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary range of services to transform and implement scientific knowledge into applications for the benefit of the industry.
Pima@tec is thefirst international center for innovation and expertise in future agri-machinery. Led by CETIM and the Hauts-de-France Region, with the support of the Beauvaisis Agglomeration, GIMA, and AGCO Massey-Ferguson, Pima@tec is an integral part of the region’s project aimed at mobilizing all stakeholders in the innovation value chain.
