Soudage MIG / TIG
MIG / TIG welding
FRProcédés de soudage à l'arc sous protection gazeuse. Le MIG (fil continu) privilégie la productivité sur des assemblages en acier, tandis que le TIG (électrode tungstène) offre un cordon très propre pour l'acier inoxydable et l'aluminium, notamment en médical et pharmaceutique.
ENGas-shielded arc welding processes. MIG (continuous wire) favors productivity on steel assemblies, while TIG (tungsten electrode) produces very clean welds on stainless steel and aluminum, notably for medical and pharmaceutical work.

- AlambicDistillation apparatus made up of a heated pot, a swan neck and a condenser. Copper pot stills and column stills each shape the aromatic profile of the distillate.
- Assemblage mécaniqueStage where fabricated parts are built into sub-assemblies or finished products: fastening, riveting, insert installation, component integration and functional checks. Outsourcing assembly reduces on-site installation labor.
- Brassage (mashing)Preparation step in which milled grain is mixed with hot water to convert starch into fermentable sugars.
- CNCMachining technology where the machine (mill, lathe) is driven by a computer program. Simultaneous 5-axis is the standard for complex aerospace and medical parts.
- Colonne de rectificationTray or packed column that multiplies evaporation-condensation cycles to obtain a high-purity alcohol, typically for vodka.
- Conception pour la fabrication (DFM)Engineering review of drawings before production to adjust materials, tolerances, bend radii and finishes in order to cut cost and scrap. Early DFM shortens lead times and limits back-and-forth during production.
