A service-oriented activity close to our clients
REEL has offices located close to its customers’ sites and provides them with support tailored to their needs, through on-site interventions, renovation work, or direct assistance.
The teams manage highly technical maintenance activities for its customers: maintenance engineering to increase the availability rate of facilities, preventive and corrective maintenance operations, regulatory inspections and compliance, technical expertise, deployment of equipment monitoring systems, and conditional maintenance.
REEL also handles the assembly and commissioning of new machines, while offering operational support and supervision services. In addition, the company provides expertise in industrial methods and maintenance management, as well as supplying spare parts and managing equipment obsolescence.
A complete response for Defense activities
With 25 years of experience, REEL designs secure equipment addressing the unique challenges of sensitive environments and integrates nuclear safety from the design phase. Thanks to complex calculations (seismic, overpressure waves) and facilities qualified to nuclear standards, the company guarantees reliable and tailored solutions.
Design of high-security cranes and handling systems specifically dedicated to lifting and transferring sensitive equipment, such as explosive or nuclear loads used in launchers.
Developed by REEL, secure loading machines and gantries are designed for the lifting, transfer, and precise positioning of essential components in propulsion systems.
These systems ensure safe and controlled operations thanks to advanced safety devices and designs tailored to sensitive environments. They play a crucial role in integrating components while maintaining a high level of reliability and compliance with strict safety and security standards.
The embedded systems designed by REEL, such as torpedo handling systems, are specifically developed to meet the constraints of operational environments at sea and in defense.
These solutions enable the safe lifting, transfer, and deployment of strategic equipment while ensuring optimal reliability and adaptation to extreme conditions. Thanks to their robustness and integrated safety features, these systems support critical operations with precision and efficiency.
REEL offers robust solutions tailored to the stringent safety and quality requirements of the sector.
Design and manufacturing of custom gloveboxes with associated processes, including welding, cutting, or other methods for handling confined elements, as well as containment enclosures for nuclear propulsion.
Development of special machines dedicated to complex operations, such as assembling the pressure hulls of submarines.
These systems ensure precise positioning, optimal control, and maximum safety during critical stages, such as the welding and assembly of hull sections.
Designed to meet the strict requirements of military naval construction, these tools guarantee robustness, precision, and compliance with the highest quality standards.
