Technical Capabilities
Our technical capabilities
Mecaflash has grown considerably since 1983, when it was founded.
In order to satisfy its customers as well as possible, our machinery is constantly evolving to meet the evolving requirements of the markets.
From prototype parts to large series, with all types of metals, we adapt our manufacturing with machining and cutting technologies such as 3-axis digital machining, wire cutting, laser cutting, bar turning, chemical cutting and stamping.

Means of production
Our machinery allows us to machine different shapes in different materials:
- Digital machining centers
- Conventional milling machines
- Conventional lathes
- Laser cutting
- Wire cutting: EDM
- Chemical cutting
- Hydraulic press
- Grinder
Manufacturing techniques
Peelable wedge manufacturing techniques
The peelable shims can be machined by CNC milling, conventional machining or wire cutting which allow us to make different sizes and shapes
Machined washer manufacturing techniques
Conventional lathe, laser cutting, digital machining
We make our washers using conventional lathes or digital machining in order to obtain optimal precision.
These can be made by laser cutting when the required tolerances allow it.
