Nexter Electronics
Nexter Electronics: very high "tailored"
electronic services
Installed in the Basso Combo "aerospace valley", close to
Toulouse, Nexter Electronics hire 132 engineers and technicians, specialized
in electronics in severe environments. The company designs, produces and maintains
equipment with high quality requirements for long service life systems.
While being directly involved in the success, among others, of Leclerc tanks,
VBCI, CAESAR®, NARWAHL®..., Nexter Electronics also approached large
equipment manufacturers not active in the defence sector, such as the aerospace
industry, railway industry, car manufacturers... Through partnerships with public
research centers, Nexter Electronics can gain a foothold in innovative civilian
markets.
A high-tech engineering office
Nexter Electronics want their engineers' skill in terms of hardware,
software and testing facilities development, expert appraisals, integration,
treatment of obsolescence, retrofitting, refurbishment and upgrading, components
purchasing, and industrial steering of a network of highly specialized subcontractors.
Military
markets
Major orders for spare parts as well as within the context of the new programs
reinforce Nexter Electronics' position in the field of electronic components
for military equipment. These orders account for more than half of Nexter Electronics'
order book.
Civil markets
In 2007, Nexter Electronics pursued their referencing work with large
electronics specialists and prime manufacturers or contractors, especially in
the field of aeronautics regarding the provision of services in respect of energy
management and distribution, tests and testability, as well as the management
of obsolescence issues and the maintenance in operational condition. This diversification
towards other clients is an essential component for the long-term development
of the company.
First references were thus obtained from companies such as: Technofan, Dassault
Aviation, Liebherr, ECE... and were followed by some orders whose amounts and
scopes are growing along with the maturing of our relations.
