Artema : the French Mechatronic Industries Association has celebrated his 10th year of its creation on october the first ; this year.
On the 1st of october 2007, Artema was created by the merger of three trade associations : MHP (High precision mechanics), UNITRAM (mechanical drives) and UNITOP (fluid power). Since fasteners and mechatronics of course, joined the association.
Nowadays, Artema is representing 9 professionals groups : bearings and linear motion, chains and transmission elements, fasteners, gears and gearboxes, hydraulics (mobile and industrial), pneumatics and automation, sealing technologies and mechatronics. Artema has 150 members, 8 partners (technological, academics). Artema is also one of the principal member of FIM (Federation of Mechanical Engineering Industries), EIFI (European Industrial Fasteners Industries), EUROTRANS (mechanical drives), FEBMA (bearings) and CETOP.
As said Didier Sepulchre, the Artema's President : ''Artema is an "augmented body" at the heart of the factory of the future. Thanks of the intelligence shared by its members and partners, Artema is an agile association, expert in its fields, which looks to the future and whose strategic vision is recognized.''
