CNC milling and turning are the foundations of MicroMécanique’s expertise in high-precision machining. Using these processes, our state-of-the-art machines manufacture individual mechanical and microtechnical parts or small series, with micron-level precision. Combining tried and tested with innovative techniques, we cater to the most cutting-edge sectors, including aeronautics, luxury goods, nuclear power, energy, medical devices and watchmaking.
Direct industrial applications
CNC turning and milling are used to produce high value-added parts ranging from prototypes to specific tools for harsh conditions.
These processes are used to serve a number of industries:
- Aeronautics and space: structural parts, assembly tools and precision components.
- Defence and nuclear power: hardened steel and carbide tools for extreme environments.
- Luxury goods and watchmaking: miniaturised components with impeccable finishes.
- Medical devices and connectors: micromechanical parts with tight tolerances, micron-scale fixtures and assemblies.
- Energy and automotive industries: complex and robust parts designed to withstand wear and fatigue.
Our CNC milling and turning machines
Our air-conditioned workshop boasts efficient and flexible CNC machining centres:
- CNC milling
- 2 HURCO VMX24 4-axis CNC machining centres with CTS high-pressure coolant system (XYZ axis 610 x 508 x 610 mm)
- CNC turning
