machining… Starting from specifications, the design teams define the material suitable for the need and the basic profile,which will most often be made specifically. They establish and design the best processes and tools suitablefor creating the expected part, whether traditional or special.To do this, they unite technical skill and production resources, traditional or hi-tech, guided by experienced professionals.Among the technologies available are : cutting, perforated blanks, punching, bending/folding, turning, tapping, digital machining, sheet nibbling, water-jet cutting, brazing, cladding, surface treatment (silvering, tinning, nickel plating, gilding), epoxy, inserts, assembly, kits, etc…



technical proFilesmade to speciFication

CROSS SECTIONS from 50 mm2 up to 7 500 mm2

LENGTH up to 9 500 mm (depending the cross section).

EVERY PROFILE is designed according to the plan provided.All characteristics : mechanical, dimensional, surface quality, contact surface,surface treatment, etc… are included in precise specifications.

OUR INTEGRATED WORKSHOPS, for designing and making tools for extruding and drawing profiles, are one-hundred percent responsive.

CERTAIN PROFILES can also be delivered in rolls, depending on their formatand nominal section.
