Mechanical assembly parts, binding and fixing elements
Screws, bolts, shafts and pins are unavoidable binding and fixing elements for several engines and industries, in particular the building & public works machinery, lifting and handling equipment and the aeoraspace industry.
Before their use, the binding and fixing elements have to go through several metal shaping stages. Hot forging in order to enhance their mechanical properties. Thread cold rolling to guarantee higher resistance to corrosion and a lower mechanical friction. Then comes the machining stage that includes the turning, milling and grinding of the components.
Andre Laurent manufactures fastenings parts, binding components and fixing elements in compliance with the international quality standards. ISO certified, the quality, efficacy, safety and lastingness of the screws, nuts, bolts, pins and shafts of Andre Laurent are guaranteed.
...Finally, through the forging process we improve our cost prices and thus our competitiveness. The mechanical properties of the forged components are optimized, our environment is respected in conformity with our certification ISO 14001, and additionally we strengthen our customers' confidence... The advantages of forging are numerous, especially with high-quality materials, like duplex or super duplex, stainless steel, inconel, copper and titanium... Our forging workshop is equipped by two means of heating: Induction and conduction... Savings on raw material, as the final shape of the part is approached by the forging process. Savings on Machining, because the forging process contributes to a reduced number of turning operations. Enhanced mechanical properties, because forging creates a continuous fiber course of material and a finer grain size. ...
...On the other hand, as the part is quite long, this flange made by forging contributes to a drastic reduction of the raw material cost. In fact, forging is the ideal solution for decreasing raw material costs while ensuring higher mechanical characteristics. The higher the mechanical properties must be, the more the forging process must be selected...
...All our forging operations are systematically controlled by infra-red heat-measuring devices ensuring full process-monitoring and forging temperature recordings...
