Powering the Future: Cinel’s Role in Fusion Energy

Fusion energy stands at the frontier of sustainable power, promising an almost limitless, clean source of energy by replicating the same reactions that fuel the sun. The challenge lies in the extreme engineering demands: confining plasma at over 100 million degrees Celsius, managing massive magnetic fields, and operating in ultra-high vacuum and cryogenic environments.

At Cinel, with decades of experience in precision mechanics and ultra-high vacuum systems, we support the most ambitious fusion research initiatives worldwide. Our strength lies in transforming complex engineering challenges into reliable, high-performance components that meet the stringent requirements of experimental fusion reactors.
