MPS COMPETENCES
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
The high level of training and experience of its micromechanics engineers allows MPS to quickly develop
innovative solutions that meet the needs of its customers.
Our developments and documentation meet the
international standards of the medical market.
Fully equipped, the prototyping workshop guarantees
the production and modification of rapid prototypes, free
from the logistical constraints of mass production. The
equipment includes lathes, milling machines, wire erosion
machines and grinding machines.
MPS sets itself apart thanks to its grinding and polishing
expertise. In these workshops, components achieve
dimensional precision of less than one micron, through
centerless grinding,
external / internal
diameter
grinding,
and mirror surface
finishes (Ra < 0.1
µm). All MPS ball
screws have threads
that are grinded on
latest-generation
equipment.
The test laboratory equipment is used to carry out
service life tests for systems developed by MPS, noise
measurements, traction tests, torque measurements and
simple measurement systems.
MANUFACTURING
(precision as a key value of MPS)
The turning & milling
workshop has a series
of CNC and EDM
machines. Each work
bench is equipped with
measuring instruments
for controlling, at
any time, the quality
of
the
products
manufactured.
Acquired over many decades, MPS’s heat treatment
knowledge is essential to achieve the material properties
needed for the performance of the systems manufactured.
MPS also has expertise in deburring and washing
components.
MPS manufactures high quality (ISO grade 3) miniature
stainless steel and ceramic (zirconium oxide) balls with
diameters between 0.130 mm and 1.588 mm.
