Their optics lineage started in 1901 as a precision optics machine manufacturer called the Machines Charlot company. In 1958, the Silvestre family acquired Machines Charlot, and the company began designing, developing, and manufacturing machines to precision optics and high-tech customers.

Aside from U.S. Headquarters, European activities are grouped in three sites. The U.S. SOMOS-Group operates globally on an area of 12,500m², uniting over 150 experts. Their proficiency in surface treatment allows them to tailor solutions to diverse customer needs. They have a strong expertise in luxury watchmaking, defense, aerospace, medical, all areas that require critical finishes. Leveraging years of experience, they’ve developed machines capable of achieving λ/10 precision on various glass types. These machines come in different dimensions, designed for different parts size, starting with trays of <200mm up to 2.5 meters.

Additionally, their wire saw complements the polishing machine, delivering high-precision cuts that strike a balance between speed and surface quality. From single wire to multiwire saw, there is also a large choice of machine dimensions for different parts size. They deal with precision optics and can proceed with different material like silicon Carbide, semiconductor, crystals, ceramics, sapphire, many type of electronics component.

Soditech participates in projects that have a high impact on the environment and people thanks to a global offer of products and services. From 20,000 leagues under the sea to the planet Mars via the Earth, their company has been evolving passionately since 1990.

They offer:

• MLI: Design, manufacturing and integration
• Electrical harness/instrumentation: Design, manufacturing and integration
• Panels equipment / AIT
• EGSE/Electrical Cabient Realization
• A Physico-Chemical Laboratory

The space market is moving rapidly with new satellites developments and a ramp-up of large scale satelites deployment.

To affirm their position as a first rank space supplier, Soditech has taken the lead in the development of new processes and tools/machines to increase drastically their manufacturing capacity.

ENERSENS’ is an expert of silica aerogel, the most efficient material for thermal insulation. Leveraging 12+ years of R&D, ENERSENS has developed best-in-class products and breakthrough manufacturing processes around silica aerogel in bulk form (granules and powders) and, most importantly, around composite blankets made of silica aerogel and synthetic fibres.

ENERSENS’ flagship product is Skogar®, a range of ultra-thin blankets (starting at 0.5 millimeter thickness) with the lowest thermal conductivity on the market (as low as 0.012 W/(m.K)) and excellent flame resistance (up to 1300 °C), capable of withstanding high compressive stresses. Skogar® blankets are best-in-class for thermal insulation while being non-flammable, non-toxic and made from sustainable materials. They are a perfect solution when top performance is required within a constrained volume. Inter-cells insulation within a battery pack is one of the key applications where Skogar® out-performs competitor products.

Skogar® blankets beat both:

• legacy solutions: better performance while being cost-competitive
• other aerogel solutions: better performance, functions and price

They are produced through a strongly patented manufacturing process. Demanding clients around the world ask Enersens to solve their most challenging thermal insulation needs.
