History :

AR-assis2.jpgFounded in 1994, the company CAE (Close Automation Electromécanique) is today mainly active in the medical field.
CAE developed their market by offering complete solutions comprising the study, the design, the installation and the maintenance, initially mainly for industrial purposes.
In 1995, CAE launched their medical department to develop a product for the medical and paramedical circles for which the patent and model were registered. It is the electronic weighing chair « Arnold », a precision weighing scale allowing to weigh in a standing or seated position with the same device.

The hospital word acclaims the concept. Arnold meets with ever-growing success and sales increase. The product is renowned for its quality, which is unanimously recognised by health professionals.

After several years of R&D, CAE then launched a full range of new scales and options covering most weighing in the medical field: new Design for "Arnold" and "Charly" scales, four types of "PC" weighing platforms (for wheelchairs, beds and stretchers), baby and infant scales "PF75 and PF77" and finally new "PF3x" weighing scales and "PF10" diaper scale.

All products are manufactured in our own CAE factory in Bande (Belgium), which allows for continuous technical response to meet the needs and changing working habits of medical and paramedical staff.
