Founded 25 years ago, Romax Technology is a world leader in providing consulting, engineering and software solutions for end-to-end driveline, bearings and gearboxes across the automotive, aerospace, rail, off road, marine, bearings and wind energy industries.
Our integrated solutions compress the time from initial concept design through analysis to testing and sign-off by up to 60%. Romax customers benefit from high performance, improved efficiency, increased reliability and reduced costs.
KISSsoft is a modular calculation system for the design, optimization and analysis of machine elements. The scope of the software ranges from a single machine element up the automatic sizing of complete gearboxes. KISSsys is KISSsoft‘s system add-on that enables you to model complete gear units and drive trains. It allows the user to analyze the gears, shafts, and bearings, all at the same time – KISSsys calculates any type of drivetrain kinematic.
The calculation programs can be used in many different sectors, such as the automobile and wind power industries, and in the manufacture of agricultural machinery, power tools, industrial gearboxes, and much more.
SKF has been a leading global technology provider since 1907. Our fundamental strength is the ability to continuously develop new technologies – then use them to create products that offer competitive advantages to our customers. We achieve this by combining hands-on experience in over 40 industries with our knowledge across the SKF technology platforms: bearings and units, seals, mechatronics, services and lubrication systems. Our success is based on this knowledge, our people, and our commitment to SKF Care principles.
The focus of SKF’s technology development today is to reduce the environmental impact of an asset during its lifecycle, both in our own and our customers’ operations. The SKF BeyondZero product portfolio is the latest example of what SKF has to offer in this area.
Safran is a leading international high-technology group with three core businesses: aerospace, defence and security. Through this global presence, the company has industrial and commercial relations with the world’s leading prime contractors and operators, while delivering fast, local service to customers around the world. Comprising a number of companies, Safran holds, alone or in partnership, world or European leadership positions in its core markets.
Safran develops, produces and markets engines and propulsion systems for civil and military airplanes and helicopters, ballistic missiles, launch vehicles and satellites. It also provides a wide range of systems and equipment for civil and military airplanes and helicopters.
The Eurocopter group was created in 1992 with the merger between the helicopter divisions of Aerospatiale-matra (France) and DaimlerChrysler Aerospace (Germany).
The group is now a subsidiary owned 100% by EADS (European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company), one of the three largest aerospace groups in the world. By a process of successive integrations, Eurocopter has become Europe's leading fully-integrated aeronautical group and is, at present, composed of three entities: the parent company, Eurocopter, the German subsidiary, Eurocopter Deutschland; and the Spanish subsidiary, Eurocopter España. This ultimate configuration has enabled the group to have unified command structures, while at the same time respecting the national identities of the partner nations.
For more than 110 years, ECAM Lyon has been recognized as a multi-disciplinary engineering school in the traditional of "Arts et Métiers". It combines scientific and technical expertise, a human and social approach and an international dimension. ECAM Lyon is a highly adaptable school that is always looking to encourage innovation in order to meet the needs of industry. Its main goal is to remain a top school, open to all.
The Technical Centre for Mechanical Industry (CETIM) was created in 1965, at the request of the French mechanical industry in order to provide companies with means and competences to improve their competitiveness, take part in standardisation, establish a relationship between scientific research and industry, promote technical progress, provide assistance to improve performance and guarantee quality.
Located on the premises of the Science and Technological Park of la Doua in Villeurbanne, INSA Lyon is ranked among the top universities of Science and Technology in Europe, pluridisciplinary and international, at the heart of the European Higher Education Area.
The Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (National Center for Scientific Research) is a public organization under the responsibility of the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research. Founded in 1939 by governmental decree, the CNRS has the following missions:
To evaluate and carry out all research capable of advancing knowledge and bringing social, cultural, and economic benefits for society.
To contribute to the application and promotion of research results.
To develop scientific information.
To support research training.
To participate in the analysis of the national and international scientific climate and its potential for evolution in order to develop a national policy.
As the largest fundamental research organization in Europe, the CNRS carried out research in all fields of knowledge, through its seven institutes
Ingenierie@Lyon is a federative research pole in the Rhône Alps region created by the main institutions of higher education and research in Lyon: l’Ecole Centrale de Lyon, l’Institut National des Sciences Appliquées (INSA) de Lyon, l’Université Claude Bernard Lyon1, the National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), ECAM. Ingenierie@Lyon is recognised nationally for its expertise in the major Engineering fields.
LaMCoS is a joint research laboratory of INSA Lyon and the CNRS widely recognised in the area of Contact and Structural Mechanics. LaMCoS is pluridisplinary and provides expertise in Tribology, Fast Dynamics, Vibration and Control, Rotating Machinery, Mechanical Transmissions and Metal Forming Processes.
