PRECILEC is a part of the Aircraft Systems Segment of the Zodiac Group.

In January 2006, PRECILEC acquires the Electrical Seats and Cabin Systems of Messier-Bugatti. This acquisition allows PRECILEC to consolidate its activity in the field of technical actuators for aeronautical and military markets, and to become a major player in the field of actuators for commercial aircraft passenger seats.

In July 2003, PRECILEC acquired the assets of LA RADIO-ENERGIE company, which allowed it to expand its motor product lines (explosion-proof and high power) and sensors (tacho-generators), to offer electrical generation products (alternators), to strengthen its industrial market position and to have a medium-run component manufacturing centre in Châtellerault.

In April 2001, PRECILEC acquired LPMI, located in Chanteloup les Vignes (78) and specialized in the design and manufacture of sensors, motors and actuators in low runs to customer specifications. This acquisition enables PRECILEC to become a recognized player in the actuator field and to expand its motor and sensor product lines, while penetrating new markets (nuclear, business aviation...).

In 1998, when the Lionel Dupont group’s aeronautics division was sold, PRECILEC joined the INTERTECHNIQUE group, then in 1999 the ZODIAC group. The head office was transferred to Auxerre.

Acquired by the Lionel Dupont Group in 1991, PRECILEC was combined with TELEFLEX SYNERAVIA and expanded its activity into the aeronautics field.

In 1979, PRECILEC’s electronics department was strengthened with the addition of a team of micro-computing specialists to develop a new generation of “tactical situation tables” for the navy and to integrate the new technologies into the visualisation product line.

The product line for the military market was expanded with the development of high-precision resolvers and brushless DC motors.

In 1965, PRECILEC built an “ultra-modern” plant in Auxerre.

Beginning in 1960, PRECILEC developed, with the assistance of the DGA, electronic navigation and visualisation equipment for the navy and expanded its electromechanical product lines with DC torque motors.

In 1951, the first decentralization was completed at the Courtenay site.

Created in 1946 in Paris by Mr. Marcel Musso, PRECILEC designs, manufactures and markets synchro machines and servomechanisms for military, naval and aeronautic applications.
