Manufacturing micro-parts for electronics and the connectivity business requires expertise that greatly exceeds the limits of conventional micro turned parts machining. The technological advances we have made working together with our tooling suppliers in recent years has enabled us to meet this demand and achieve high levels of precision in the production of very small parts.
To produce components for the electronics industry, various machining operations can be performed on automatic turning machines:
The finish of turned workpieces can be adapted to each specific requirement according to the following treatments:
Heat treatments and polishing are carried out in our workshops. For the other processes, we rely on local specialist partners.
Our broad expertise in micro-turned parts and the machining of complex, high-precision parts has enabled us to establish our position in the electronics, electronic testing, and connector business.
We specialise in long production runs, particularly for test probes used for printed circuits. These devices must offer high levels of reliability and excellent electrical conductivity; as a result, the quality of the finish must be impeccable.
