Exxelia Ohmcraft's cutting-edge resistors redefining reliability in the aerospace industry

Empowering Space Exploration: Unveiling the Cutting-Edge Exxelia Ohmcraft Resistors


Exxelia Ohmcraft resistor Exxelia Ohmcraft provides designers of space instrumentation with resistors that are the foundation for building robust power supplies, sensors and imaging equipment. Exxelia Ohmcraft products have helped push forward scientific advancements in mass spectrometry, image intensifiers, X-Ray sources and spectroscopic analysis. We provide standard and custom products to many market leaders with the reliability that makes Exxelia Ohmcraft the resistor of choice for such critical scientific space applications.

 

Our unique Micropen precision printing technology produces ultra-stable resistors with exceptional reliability that are perfectly suited for space flight applications. For over 20 years, Exxelia Ohmcraft has been designing resistors used in instruments on various spacecrafts. Our resistors enable the analytical equipment designed for strategic science missions which creates the space technology that explores outer space.


Exxelia Ohmcraft technology produces a superior resistor. The combination of our longer serpentine pattern and high-aspect ratio gives our resistors unmatched design flexibility, linearity, stability and low noise capability as well as:

50 ans du site Exxelia Pessac

Le site de Pessac est l'un des 12 sites industriels d'Exxelia. Il compte environ 130 salariés et est spécialisé dans la production de condensateurs céramique ainsi que des pièces en alliage de matériaux, suivant nos propres recettes de céramiques isolantes.  L'usine a vu le jour à Pessac il y a un demi-siècle : elle fait partie intégrante de la vie de la Cité et de la Région qui ont participé activement à son développement. Parfaitement insérée dans l’écosystème local, les interactions sont nombreuses avec les institutions, laboratoires, universités, écoles ou entreprises voisines. L’usine de Pessac a été construite en 1971 et inaugurée en septembre 1972. Sa création est à l’initiative de Jean-Claude Asscher, Président du groupe Tekelec-Airtronic. Initialement dédié à la distribution, le groupe Tekelec- Airtronic s’est lancé dans la fabrication sous licences pour ensuite développer et industrialiser ses propres produits. Son développement a suivi celui de l’électronique, des télécommunications et de l’informatique en France et dans le monde. Le groupe atteindra une dimension conséquente : en 1992, fort de 20 sociétés employant 3 000 personnes dans différents pays, son chiffre d’affaires dépassera le milliard de dollars. L’usine de Pessac restera associée au groupe jusqu’au début des années 2000.   Voici une rétrospective de l'événement en vidéo :
