Expertise

We bring our expertise to help you tackle your strategic challenges and create together, through our collaboration, real added value.

Co-development

Developing molded parts in collaboration with our clients greatly improves the ability to produce them. Our engineers in the Design Office or Methods Department explore every way to enhance the manufacturing of parts, simplify them, and reduce costs. Limit thicknesses according to stress distribution, reduce weight by integrating cores. 
Involving us in the design of a new component at an early stage allows us to improve the productivity of the series product and thus reduce costs. We convert your welded assemblies into more compact molded parts that offer possibilities for more complex shapes. Take advantage of this expertise to combine as many functions as possible into a single part.

From the specifications to the finished part, our team masters the tools required at every stage of design: CAD (Computer-Aided Design) with SolidWorks, computer-assisted mold filling and solidification simulation with Inspire Cast, CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) with SolidCAM, strength calculations, and 3D printing.

Rapid prototyping

We offer our clients the benefits of 3D printing technology (Vhm RÉALISATIONS 3D, link to website) to create resin prototypes for commercial, marketing, and functional validation. This additive manufacturing process allows you to produce, in a short time, the tooling needed to create a "true-material" prototype. Within just a few days, you receive your prototypes cast, machined, painted, and assembled.

Machined and assembled parts

Our expertise in machining and assembly allows us to offer improvements on your parts or assemblies to facilitate positioning, minimize machining, and reduce assembly time. 

Choice of Cast Iron Grade

We assist you in selecting the appropriate cast iron grade based on the intended application of your parts.

• EN-GJL Gray Cast Iron: Excellent machinability, vibration damping, resistant to thermal shocks and high-temperature oxidation. Provides excellent sealing for hydraulic applications. Used for all mechanical parts and machine tool frames. 
  
  ​
   
• EN-GJS Ductile (Spheroidal) Cast Iron: Very high mechanical strength, impact resistance, and wear resistance. Good resilience. Used for water distribution systems and mechanical parts such as housings, brackets, and suspension arms. 
  
  ​
   
• Ni-Hard Cast Iron: Excellent resistance to abrasion and erosion. Used for crushing and transporting abrasive materials.
• Ni-Resist Cast Iron: Excellent corrosion resistance, even at low and high temperatures. Used for pumps.
• Chrome Cast Iron: Very high hardness and oxidation resistance, even at high temperatures. Used for furnace thresholds and conveyors.
• Silicon Cast Iron: Very high resistance to deformation and oxidation at high temperatures.
