We execute highly complex projects by combining precision metal fabrication with mechanical, electrical, electronic, and mechatronic integration. We support defense OEMs in delivering solutions that meet stringent quality, regulatory, and operational requirements.
The defense sector requires not only reliability, but also strict data security and full compliance with export control regulations.
Products used in defense applications operate under extreme environmental and operational conditions. They must ensure reliable performance in mission-critical scenarios, often without the possibility of servicing.
Typical requirements include:
- high resistance to shock and vibration
- IP65/IP67-rated protection
- electromagnetic compatibility (EMC/EMI)
- tight geometric tolerances
- durability in harsh environments
- full compliance with safety standards and export regulations
Addit supports customers in designing and manufacturing solutions that meet these requirements while ensuring production scalability and supply chain flexibility.
