ILL main interfaces

Staff : 7 agents

 

The Industry Liaison Laboratory (ILL) is the interface between the engineering and design office, scientists, the procurement division of CEA and industrial companies. Its main purpose is to follow the studies and/or the manufacturing, entrusted to industrial companies, of complex mechanical equipment destined to physics instrumentation in the following fields :

  • ground-based telescopes,
  • space telescopes,
  • detectors,
  • particle accelerators components,
  • particle sources and targets, including associated shieldings.

 

The ILL main activity and expertise fields are described below.

 

Engineering support during design phases :

  • support to project management,
  • definition of manufacturing schedules,
  • cost estimation and cost engineering,
  • support to the selection of materials and manufacturing processes,
  • risk analysis,
  • quality insurance, documentation and configuration management,
  • implementation of purchase orders, call for tender and contracts (when necessary with the procurement division of CEA).
