Precision mechanics & mass machining

SEMECA manufactures precision mechanical parts in low and medium-volume production lines.
This department focuses on projects that require a particularly high level of precision. With years of experience behind us, we have developed considerable expertise in high-speed machining, from 3 to more than 5 continuous axles. SEMECA produces mechanical parts in low and medium production volumes in a range of materials (aluminium, steel, titanium, etc.)

     • Turnkey service combining programming
       with quality control
     • Experience and pragmatism
     • Collaboration and cooperation with other activities
       (mechanised welding, assembly, etc.)
     • High-speed machining capabilities for a wide range
       of materials

 Programming - methodology

SEMECA’s programming – methodology unit develops the production ranges and manufacturing programmes for the mechanical parts or tools that it produces using CATIA, a simulation tool.

     • Updating external programmes and reindustrialising parts
     • Simplified training directly on the machines
     • Programming on CATIA V4/V5 and the simulation
       tool VERICUT^®
     • DNC system to manage our programmes
     • Constant monitoring of developments in terms of
       cutting work
     • Generation and optimisation of our post-processors
       on IMS

• High-speed CNC machining with 5 axles, small and large-volume production capacity (up to 3 m):
    - HURON KX 100, KX 200 machines

• High-speed CNC machining with 3 to 5 axles, small and medium-volume production capacity:
    - HURON KX 30, KX 10 FIVE, VX6 machines

• CNC machining with 3 to 5 axles, large-volume production capacity (up to 12 m)
    - ZAYER 12000, ZAYER 4000, ZAYER 3000 machines
    - SORALUCE 6 m, FOREST V1 machines
    - 3 pin 5 axle CINCINNATI CTS machines

• Various 3 and 4 axle small-volume (< 6m) CNC machining centres
    - MORI SEIKI 8 pallet machines
    - BRIDGEPORT 520, OKUMA 4VA and 6VA machines

• Various CNC turning centres with 2 and 3 axles, small-scale
    - MORI SEIKI NT, MAZAK QTN250, S0MAB TRANSMAB machines

• Semi-automatic programmable turning centres, small and medium-scale dimensions
    - CAZENEUVE machines

• Other methods available via our subsidiaries
    - CNC CSF tower, 6 m between centres, 1.5 m diameter
    - CNC milling machine VEGAMILL (4 x 2 m)

There are more than a hundred people working on numerically controlled machining, on 8 hour shifts in teams of 3 or 4.
