What is A3TS?
A3TS,
Association
from
thermal treatment
and
surface treatment
Was created in 1969
Its objective is to disseminate and promote advanced technological knowledge in the fields of materials processing, namely heat treatment and surface treatment.
A3TS has about 800 members, which are companies, French and international industrial organizations, engineers, researchers, experts and academics who are involved in its daily activities.
A network of connected professionals
The very active and friendly network of the A3TS is one of the major characteristics of the association. We are committed to promoting exchanges between its members in a warm and welcoming environment.
Members are listed in a directory that is updated annually.
A3TS events
The A3TS organizes several events each year: a Congress and an annual exhibition bringing together professionals in the field of heat treatment and surface treatment as well as those in the vacuum industry, and thematic conferences on current scientific and technical topics (General States of Chrome VI-free technologies, Thermal Protection Techniques, Additive Manufacturing ...).

a website and a member area
A3TS members have access, via their member area, to a unique database containing video recordings of Congress conferences, A3TS Science and Technique publications, process sheets updated by our specialists, as well as the A3TS Contact information magazine.
A training center
A3TS is also an approved training center, and benefits from the Qualiopi certification. As such, the training courses it provides in the fields of heat treatment and surface treatment can be covered by the continuing education system.
This certification also attests to the excellence of the training process provided by A3TS.
