D.A.T.E
Development and Applicationsof Energy techniques and Heat Transfer Systems
Leader of high-end heat exchangers and thermal transfer solutions.
As an engineering and manufacturing company, our core business is the technical study, the design and the manufacturing of high-end heat exchangers.
A heat exchanger is a thermal device used to transfer thermal energy from a fluid to another one. The goal is to heat up, to cool down or to maintain at a constant temperature. Our core business is the manufacturing of high-end exchangers for hi-tech markets.
Since 1979, we are building solutions to fulfill complex requirements from our customers:
Cryogenic temperatures (-271,3°C / -456,3°F / 1,8K)
or very high temperatures (700°C / 1292°F / 1000K)
Restrictive Environment :
Space – Extreme Vacuum
Constrained volume or weight
At the heart of the French Alps
We are in La Motte d’Aveillans in France,
between lakes and mountains
