Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / piezo-ceramic elements
French term or phrase: fabriqués à l’ilôt HF
The context is the manufacture of piezo-ceramic elements. I have found several references to "’ilôt HF", but I just can't quite put a name to it.
Whole sentence: "fabriqués à l’ilôt HF avec le support DMMP"

made in the hot forge / HF unit / HF shop
Explanation:
Not that I know anything about such things ....

Without further context it seems to me "hot forge" or "HF unit/shop" is a likely candidate.

manufactured in blast furnace block


Explanation:
I understand that, here HF means haut fourneau, which means blast furnace in English.

Yes, you can also use foundry in this context.

Asker: Ah, yes, "foundry" kind of makes sense in the context of ceramic manufacture, but probably not "blast furnace"...


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
disagree  Tony M: 'blast furnaces' are used for producing steel in alrge quantities, not tiny little piezo elements (or even quite big ones!)

agree  Bashiqa: I would opt for this one as covering all possibilities, perhaps putting station instead of unit.

fabricated in the hydrofluoric acid (HF) station


Explanation:
While you're looking at long shots, and given the extra context about the manufacture or sonar sensors (as distinct from stuff like electrical insulators), maybe HF refers to hydrofluoric acid, which can be used to etch ceramics. This also brings me back to my earlier questions about C3H9O3P or CH3PO(OCH3)2. The following webrefs may not be directly related to your ST, but they do speak of the association of HF and DMMP:

It occurs to me also the 'ilôt' suggests a section of the manufactuing chain tht is separated from the rest, such as might be necssary if dangerous liquids such as strong acds are involved.
