iMAR - Excellence in Navigation

Inertial Navigation and Measuring Systems
for Stabilization, Surveying, Navigation,
Guidance and Control

iMAR, located in St. Ingbert, near Frankfurt, south western Germany, has extensive longtime experience in the conception, development, manufacture, sales and support of inertial measurement systems applied to many tasks in navigation, surveying, stabilisation, guidance, control and other specialised applications. These applications range through the entire applications spectrum from military to commercial, from the ocean floor to space.
iMAR's team of engineers and scientists have an unparalleled in-depth knowledge of the various inertial sensors, algorithms, hardware design and software engineering. This applied expertise achieves the highest measurement performance in the delivered systems, matched to each customer's specific requirements. iMAR can readily assist your organsisation in producing a cost-effective and high-accuracy inertial solution, whatever your requirements or final enduse and whether you want a volume oriented OEM cost-effective product or a single item solution.

iMAR has an advanced testing and certification centre for inertial systems. The equipment in the centre includes a three axis turntable, a two axis and a single axis turntable and various other calibra-ted testing systems including two full mil/space-spec range temperature chambers and a vibration platform. The modern 1,500 sq mtr production and engineering area is suited to delivering both low and high volume customer systems with fully traceable quality standards.

iMAR GmbH is represented in the UK, Canada, China, India, Italy, Netherlands, Israel, Japan and in the UAE.

Inhouse-Manufacturing of electronics and mechanics @ iMAR (pcb soldering, CNC machine tools etc.)

Measuring and calibration lab with 3 motion tables, 2 temperature chambers, shaker etc.

Due to the increasing volume of offered products and system solutions iMAR has expanded its production and research facilities in May 2003 to be able furthermore to serve also the expanding international market.
