Production
starts with
the creation of products, which takes
place in three stages: creation of the
shape,
the model and the mould :
1.
Creation of the shape
The perfecting of
any new
item depends on the different skills
involved in
creating the product, designing the item
and
making the mould.
Thanks
to
our creative and skilled employees as
well as
our advanced techniques, several
hundreds of new products are created
each
year.
The
creative phase, just like the technical
processes, has changed a lot and now
uses
computer-assisted production, 3D models
and
automated manufacturing of
test-moulds
2. Creation
of the model
In anticipating
current
trends, the designers
work with the product managers to design
original models. The first sketches then
lead to
the making of a resin model
which makes it possible to visualise the
future
product.
The model is then sent to the
technical
departments which design the
moulds.
3.
Creation of moulds
Different
processes are used: lathing, milling,
electro-erosion, fitting and polishing.
The
quality of the shaped items depends
directly on
the moulds.
