High precision bar turning by SMEPI
The bar turning of mechanical parts machining in small and medium series is a complex process which requires specific machinery. Only professionals in the field have them. SMEPI is one of them while also justifying several years of experience to its credit.
​
What does bar turning consist of?
​
Small and medium series bar turning is a machining process used for the manufacture of complex mechanical parts. This technique requires both specific know-how and suitable machines.
​
This is the generally preferred method for machining precision parts, consisting in gradually removing material from a bar or a metal wire, and is an alternative to conventional methods of machining particularly resistant and difficult metals and alloys.
​
In addition, bar turning offers great precision while saving material. Today, the machines used in this process offer precision to the millimeter and are computer controlled, which considerably reduces the risk of error.
​
However, to ensure the quality, performance and longevity of your parts, it is recommended that you contact only a reputable and reliable company.
​
Opt for SMEPI to obtain quality mechanical parts
​
A company specializing in precision mechanics, SMEPI offers its know-how and experience to manufacture complex parts from the bar turning technique.
​
Our precision bar turning parts are intended for sectors as varied as energy (nuclear industries, etc.), transport or the chemical industry.
​
We master both traditional and modern machining techniques and technologies. We specialize in deep drilling, rolled threading, and spark erosion.
​
Other methods are also used such as bar turning used to machine small and medium series revolution parts. These modern manufacturing techniques make it possible to create parts of better quality, more robust and with fewer imperfections.
​
Subjected to appropriate treatments (chrome plating, nickel plating, etc.) depending on their destination, as well as rigorous tests, our parts are fitted to the machines of many French companies, such as SNCF or EDF.
​
The services that we make available to our customers cover the entire part manufacturing process, from the creation of prototypes to delivery, to their assembly.
​
Thanks to our large stock of raw materials, our manufacturing times are shortened. At the customer's request, we can provide periodic or timed deliveries.

Why choose a professional in mechanical bar turning?
The turning of small and medium series parts is an intervention requiring meticulousness. This operation is carried out by means of an automated machine known under the name of "automatic lathes". These are very precise machines, specialized in cutting mini metal components. They are thus designed to manufacture parts of around ten millimeters in diameter. To benefit from this kind of service, it is better to choose a professional. A company with qualified and experienced staff helps you avoid unpleasant surprises.
​
Indeed, a simple handling error can compromise hundreds and thousands of components depending on the order. As a result, this will lead to the famous trade-in operation, which may cost you extra money. Before reaching this stage, you can seek the services of SMEPI , a booming company that is a benchmark in the field of mechanical bar turning.
