Specialized in spinning, a cold metal deformation technique, the Group offers various production offerings, from prototyping to medium and small series, where stamping would require very significant investments in tooling. Spinning is a technical process for shaping seamless revolution shapes by deforming a metal disc, cone, crown or ferrule. A technique that allows the metal to be optimized and is part of both an economic and sustainable development approach.
High technical requirements
Taking advantage of its traditional heritage, the Group has taken a turn towards industrialization, positioning itself in demanding markets: aeronautics, weapons, nuclear energy, shipyards, agricultural sector, high-tech industry, high-end decoration. “Designers ask us to make unique pieces, like sculptures and lighting.” A work of art that gives rise to custom-made creations, such as the prototypes of the Ariane rocket tanks or the creation of the luminaires of the Perrache vaults in Lyon.
To respond to the specific demands of its clients, Bonitempo has created additional structures: design offices and quality department. “We have also invested in new machines and incorporated the digital chain into our production.”
Team camaraderie
Without forgetting internal training, an essential pillar to ensure the transfer of know-how. “Little known, the job of a pusher requires time. There are no schools to become a trafficker. That is why we train our operators in a form of camaraderie.” With its artisanal methods transferred to the industry, Bonitempo/Erbis embodies avant-garde craftsmanship. “This heritage has a lot of value, it is essential to maintain it”concludes Philippe Walker.
