Machine design and manufacture

We adapt to the configuration and maturity of your project. In some cases, the request is based on very precise specifications. For other projects, we help our customers to clearly express their expectations. Sometimes, to test an idea, a concept, or simply to define and quantify the need, a feasibility phase is necessary.

This enables us and our customers to explore a problem in order to define whether a relevant solution can be provided, and within what limits. This preliminary study takes place upstream of the design phase. It is of great benefit to our customers because it gives them a clear idea of the technological content of the machines and helps to secure a budget estimate.

We are equipped with high-performance hardware and software for CAD, schematics, robotics and programming.

If the use of a particular software package is required, we can adapt to the specific needs of our customers, so as to retain the native file formats they are used to. Right from the design stage, we also incorporate recommendations relating to HSE, ergonomics and equipment safety, to minimise risks to operators.

Depending on the configuration and the hazards involved, this may involve the use of immaterial safety barriers, enclosures or covers, monitored doors and openings, or protective mesh zones when robots are used. All our machines are designed to meet the mandatory safety levels required by the Machinery Directive and the CE standard, whether they are operated inside or outside the European Union.

Our machines are CE-certified and often undergo a conformity check carried out by an approved inspection and verification body.

Throughout the development process, we organise project reviews and progress milestones, either face-to-face or in remote meetings, to validate and share the various choices as we go along. Although based in France, we regularly design special machines for other countries. In these cases, communication, documents and project management are conducted in English.

The trust and proximity with all our suppliers is a guarantee of quality and allows us to react quickly.

In the field of mechanical manufacturing, they produce our machined parts, with specific treatments or finishes. They also produce our sheet metal parts and mechanically welded assemblies, for the production of chassis that are often coated with epoxy powder paint in the colour requested by the customer.

Consultation and monitoring of supply deadlines with our suppliers are an integral part of our service during the design and production phases, to provide a clear vision of the project and meet the deadlines and budgets defined with our customers.

We draw up the electrical diagrams, the automation, the wiring and the complete manufacture of the cabinet. The machine is assembled in our assembly hall, where commissioning and initial testing take place. A project acceptance phase very often takes place on our premises, in the presence of the customer, to ensure that everything meets expectations before shipment.
