Ventana wants to keep his workforce.
The aeronautics sector is suffering dramatically from the paralysis of the world economy caused by the health crisis linked to Covid-19, this is why local companies in the sector have been forced to adapt: practice telework, review their organizations, cover up partially unemployed.
“Ventana’s goal is clear in this moment of uncertainty: to keep our people, to keep our skills. This will only be possible with a lively and constructive dialogue with Ventana stakeholders. ”

Foundry and Béarn addict!
Alexis Claverie, responsible for projects in the process department of Ventana Arudy, has won the regional New Aquitaine talent award for Aeronautics and Space, innovation category since December 5, 2019 in Bordeaux.
This award is the fruit of more than 10 years at Ventana Arudy, a unique universe: the foundry.
The winner bears witness to this astonishing discovery “What I liked, I who came out of a general engineering school, is precisely the diversity of trades offered by the foundry. As a student, you cannot imagine how vast this field is! “
He is in charge of this foundry at the design office and is partly responsible for the digital transformation. “I have worked on many projects, notably on the Caribbean (installation of new technologies). This program was very important for our foundry, because it allowed the use of 3D printing, contactless scanner, computerization of operating ranges, etc. The innovations in this program are also still in progress, such as robotization

Voice assistants and other robots and artificial intelligence, are technologies that evolve very quickly and that increasingly rock our society. Ventana has taken up the challenge of setting up one in its workshops in order to improve the operators’ efficiency and facilitate still very manual work. Tested on three workstations at the start of 2019, this technology should evolve the approach to industrial trades in the near future.

[Press] Aeronautics and space talents: discover the 2019 winners!

The 5th edition of the New Aquitaine Aeronautics and Space Talents, opened by Cédric Gautier, the CEO of Stelia Aerospace, brought together 250 people in Bordeaux, this Thursday, December 5 at the Palais de la Bourse in Bordeaux. The event, organized by La Tribune in co-creation with the association BAAS (Bordeaux Aquitaine aeronautics and space), saluted the career paths of eight professionals in the sector. Here are the winners.
“It is urgent and vital to review and transform the French supply chain in the aeronautical sector to recover profitability and investment capacity […] Our supply chain needs to consolidate with more ETI in the aeronautics sector. Today there are very nice intermediary companies but also a myriad of SMEs that are still too small to resist the wave that is coming and which requires strong capacities for innovation and investment! “
It is through this unambiguous call that Cédric Gautier, CEO of Stelia Aerospace (€ 2.2 billion in turnover and 7,100 employees on three continents), launched the 5th edition of the New Aquitaine Aeronautical Talents and Space this December 5, 2019. “Competition is fierce and fierce in the aeronautical sector and this involves investing, innovating, training and reaching critical mass and best cost production (best costs, Editor’s note. We need an industrial vision and take the essential turn of connectivity and big data “, he continued in front of 250 decision-makers in the aeronautics, space and defense sector coming from all the southwest of France .
Vice-president of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Regional Council in charge of economic development and the digital economy, Bernard Uthurry mentioned in the introduction the efforts made by the aeronautical world to reduce its environmental footprint and the actions of the local authority engaged in the same direction, framed by the NeoTerra roadmap. In addition to the musical interludes of the Aeronauts, the orchestra of the Aeroparc de Bordeaux, the evening was punctuated by interventions by leaders and professionals from the sector from leading companies such as ArianeGroup, Thales, Expleo Group, Dassault, Stelia Aerospace Composites, Roxel, CFAI Aquitaine and SIAé / AIA de Bordeaux. From the delivery of the Ariane 6 launcher to Guyana to the future of touchscreen avionics, passing through the requirements of maintaining operational conditions, the profession of aircraft technician, working in a multi-functional team and transforming factories without paper, the themes addressed were as specific as they were varied.
