In our laboratory
THIOT INGENIERIE also boasts the first private Shock Physics laboratory, with cutting-edge test equipment and metrology solutions. The company is the preferred partner of players in the defence and security, aeronautics, aerospace and research sectors for:
We combine experiments in laboratory with our unique know-how in numerical calculation: our expertise in shock physics is the result of these both components that are essential for a good understanding of fast dynamics phenomena.
Our aim is to study the behavior of materials and structures under shock stress (crashes, ballistic impacts, blasts, etc.) in the minutest detail to enable our customers to develop the most reliable products capable of handling the threats they face. Experts, researchers and engineers remain at your service to advise and support you in the development and optimization of your products.
OUR TEAMS
Our company employs around thirty world-leading experts (designers, technicians, engineers and scientists). Our excellent knowledge of our clients' spheres of activity allows us to respond to each of their requests with an effective and tailor-made solution.
OUR EXPERIENCE
Our company has now been designing shock physics test equipment for our clients in the military, aeronautics, aerospace and research sectors for nearly 30 years. We are currently world leader in the field of impact testing, ballistic testing and fast dynamics.
WE PUT OURSELVES IN YOUR SHOES
As well as manufacturing launchers, we also have our own test laboratory and so have hands-on experience of the situations that you experience. We are always on the lookout for technical development opportunities and constantly innovate to provide you with the best-performing test equipment on the market.
