      Company Profile
    • Who is Brame Tech?

      Brame means “intense passion” and here at Brame-Tech we fuse passion and technology. Brame-Tech is a provider of rugged and military grade products and Small Form Factor (SFF) systems to the avionic, military and heavy industrial markets. Brame-Tech has consolidated and integrated several best-of-breed manufactures of embedded computing boards and systems to create standards based solutions in small and rugged formats. Brame-Tech’s SFF products utilize standards based on VITA 46/65 (3U VPX), VITA-74 (VNX), PICMG’s COM Express, and PCI-SIG’s MiniPCIe and more. Products and solutions include multiple CPUs manufactured by Intel® (Xeon, i7, i5, Atom), NXP/Freescale (Power Architecture® and ARM®), AMD (G and R Series), SATA and nVME storage, Ethernet switching, video graphics (with OpenGL and OpenCL), discrete and analog I/O, and avionic interfaces (MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429 and AS-5643 MIL-1394B) operating under MS-Windows, Linux, VxWorks, Integrity and Deos.

    • Founder’s vision

      Pioneer of VITA-74 (VNX)

      Brame-Tech was founded by Bill Ripley, a seasoned Electrical Engineer with over 35 years of experience in the avionic / military embedded computer market, and has worked half the time in a major helicopter / tiltrotor manufacturer's system integration organization, and the rest of the time for a COTS board and M-COTS system provider. Throughout the years, he has been a mentor and guru for the supporting technologies that have driven this sector, as well as a visionary of where the rugged embedded market should go. Bill has been active participant in the VITA Standards Organization, Vehicle Integration for C4ISR/EW Interoperability (VICTORY) standards committee, the Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE™) community, as well as the European analog of VICTORY, the MILVA & NGVA groups.

       

      Bill invested immense time and thought on how to create small embedded rugged computer system for the avionic and military market. After taking everything into consideration and reviewing the available Small Form Factor (SFF) products, Bill concluded that there is a crucial need for a coherent, standards-based, module-centric, small form factor COTS architecture. This started his vision and pioneering the standard called VITA-74, also known by its marketing name, VNX. The goal for the VNX standard is to take the concepts that have made its "big-brother" VPX successful, and apply those concepts to a similarly architected SFF platform. To minimize time-to-market, technical risks and cost, VNX mirrored much of the innovative work done on VITA 46/65 and now offers a respectable performance SFF solution with improved Size, Weight, Power and Cost; better known as SWaP-C.

    • Brame-Tech "A to Z" offering

      Companies supplying to the military and avionic marketplace have more challenges than ever before. New disruptive technologies and business models are creating demanding requirements with shorter periods to deliver them. Brame-Tech meets that challenge by offering our customers a complete set of Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) and Modified COTS (MCOTS) products and related services which are focused around small form factor computers. Customers can purchase complete subsystems and all supporting hardware from one source which can provide the lab development chassis, rugged chassis, cables, purpose-built test equipment, as well as provide the qualification testing, system documentation, project management and after sales support. Some customers may purchase only the part of their requirement that they wish to outsource, such as custom boards, backplanes, connector panels, power suppliers, Ethernet switches, storage devices, and both lab development systems as well as rugged chassis products, including ATR based solutions. All these can be provided as per a related standard or customized for a specific application. Let us be your one-stop solutions provider.
