OPTRION, a spin-off of Centre Spatial de Liège and a branch of V2i, is a company specialized in optical metrology and non-destructive testing for composite material and structures, especially Shearography.

Based on a successful industrial transformation in 2019, MPP is positioned as the preferred solution for both aerospace and industrial companies to support customers in their needs for expertise and non-destructive inspection of their parts as well as precision deburring and polishing.

Calyos is a leading expert in the design and manufacture of two-phase thermal management systems.

We are technical experts in the following domains :

• loop heat pipes,
• micro-channel heat pipes,
• pulsating heat pipes. 

Calyos has developed several solutions for three specific cooling applications :

• power electronics, 
• processors, 
• batteries. 

Calyos also develops custom solutions beyond those applications for example, engine oil heat recovery. 

Le projet ViBra (Virtal Braiding) vise à développer des solutions numériques qui supporteront et optimiseront l’utilisation de machines de tressage (braiding) permettant la production automatisé de préformes sèches pour matériaux composites à section tubulaire. Ces machines sont en effet très difficiles à utiliser, mais leur caractère automatisé est un élément clé dans la démocratisation de l’utilisation des composites.

Our company, among with its 35 professionals, is dedicated to realising high quality paintings for demanding industries (aerospace, aeronautics, defence and security, railways, etc.).

We are used to complex treatments and paint specifications. We can work on every substrate and are able to consult you on the best treatment choices.

We are certified ISO 9001:2015 and EN 9100:2018

The activity is done on each of the following industrial methods used to check the quality of the material (usually Steel, Aluminum or Titanium alloy and composite parts)

• Liquid penetrant (PT)
• Magnetic particle (MT)
• Thermography (IRT)
• Shearography (ST)
• Eddy current (ET)
• Ultrasonic (UT)
• Radiography (RT)

For each method, Level 3 from NDTPRO must:

IONICS has a large equipment park available to lease for demonstration, feasibilities and production. Our engineering team can advise you. Co-development and projects with the Materia Nova R&D center to fine-tune your industrial solution is also possible.

COATIX is a portfolio of smart coating solutions offering easy-to-clean, anti-fouling, hydrophobic, super hydrophobic and anti-corrosion properties as well as coloration from transparent to gold while keeping the look and feel of the substrate.
