MPS COMPETENCES
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
MANUFACTURING
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.
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.
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.
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.
(precision as a key value of MPS)
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 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.
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.
