The Aerospace sector
At NEXIO, we combine engineering (design and testing), measurement and simulation to offer tailor-made support to all business sectors.
Whether for components or complete systems, we operate on a global scale, respecting the standards in force (Europe, USA, Asia, etc.) and the specific requirements of each project.
We are committed to :
- Anticipate and master regulatory constraints right from the start of development.
- Identify and guarantee the essential functions of electronic devices.
- Minimize the costs associated with EMC/RADIO/DAS/Lightning development and certification sequences.
With over 20 years’ experience as specialists, we are well positioned to meet the challenges common to all sectors of the economy.
Our Solutions by Sector: Aerospace
A Subsidiary in Full Transformation
In 2024, the French aerospace industry is experiencing a real boom, with a record level of orders in the civil sector, approaching 2019 sales figures.
However, challenges remain: tensions over raw materials, a crucial need for skilled labor, and longer delivery times.
New Technical Challenges
This transition to cleaner aviation means a rethink of design methods.
New aircraft are lighter and less metallic, and place greater demands on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and lightning protection.
Electronic systems now have to withstand greater stress, requiring special attention.
Towards Sustainable Aviation
The main challenge is to overcome the “airplane bashing” phenomenon by moving towards more environmentally-friendly aviation.
This involves :
- Development of fuel-efficient aircraft
- Use of sustainable fuels
- Decarbonized propulsion research (electric, hydrogen, etc.)
- Design of light, autonomous aircraft (drones, flying cabs, etc.)
Our solutions
At NEXIO, we offer a complete range of services to support this transformation:
- Definition and simulation of EMC/lightning constraints
- Transformation of requirements to sub-systems and equipment
- Recommendations for protection solutions
- Drafting of qualification documents (drawings, procedures, etc.)
- Preparation and follow-up of qualification campaigns
- Management of post-qualification changes (obsolescence, etc.)
