Akris Group > Our expertise > Engineering & Assembly
In a rapidly changing industrial world, the ability to produce a high-precision part is no longer enough. True performance lies in strategic support and global mastery of the value chain. Within AKRIS Group, engineering and assembly are not auxiliary services ; they constitute the brain of our organization. By merging the engineering offices and know-how of SUMCA, S3M, CTS, and USICARB on akris-group.com, we provide our clients with a unified engineering hub, capable of transforming complex problems into reliable industrial realities.
Our approach is based on a conviction : a perfectly machined part only has value if it integrates harmoniously into a larger system. This is why we have structured a complete offer ranging from design consulting (Design for Manufacturing) to the delivery of ready-to-use mechanical sub-assemblies.
Success on a project begins long before the first machining chip. Our engineers and technicians intervene from the initial design phases to optimize the manufacturability of your components.
Value analysis : We challenge your drawings to identify technical and economic optimization levers, without ever compromising the final function of the part.
• Reverse Engineering : We are capable of recreating complete technical files from existing parts, a valuable expertise for the maintenance of legacy machine parks or the modernization of tooling.
• Exclusive methodological tools : To guarantee total clarity, we rely on our proprietary GeoGleiss and Vision 360 infographics. These tools allow us to approach every project from all angles (material constraints, complex geometries, market requirements), ensuring a global and secure vision from the design phase.
One of AKRIS Group’s flagship areas of expertise, particularly driven by the SUMCA entity, lies in the production of complete mechanical assemblies. We do not just manufacture isolated components ; we conduct in-depth studies to solve specific client problems.
• Precision assembly and adjustment : Our expert technicians perform the assembly of complex sub-assemblies, including fine-tuning and functional adjustment.
• “Mechanical assembly” expertise : Whether it is pre-setting benches, complex compaction molds or specific gripping devices, we deliver turnkey solutions. This factory pre-assembly capability allows our clients to reduce their integration times on their own production lines.
• Management of third-party components : As part of our assembly services, we manage the procurement and inspection of standard or specific elements integrated into your assemblies.
In critical sectors such as nuclear, defense, or medical, design engineering must guarantee absolute reliability. AKRIS Group has established “zero variability” as an industrial standard.
• Process repeatability : Every assembly protocol is documented and frozen to guarantee that every assembly produced is strictly identical to the previous one, a vital requirement for high-security markets.
• Total traceability : From the initial calculation note to the final metrology inspection, every step is tracked. We provide our clients with complete manufacturing files, essential for meeting the strictest standards.
• Inspection and Validation : Every sub-assembly leaving our workshops undergoes rigorous functional tests, validating total compliance with the client ‘s specifications.
Choosing AKRIS means benefiting from the power of a group structured by a shared ERP. This technological harmonization allows for perfect synchronization between our engineering offices and our assembly workshops.
• Service continuity : In case of urgent need or overload at a site, our systems allow for the switching of a design or assembly project management to another group unit without any loss of information.
• Capacity Security : We guarantee our clients a constant intervention capacity. This networked organization is our strength : it offers the responsiveness of a local partner and the solidity of a leading industrial group.
Beyond technique, the AKRIS Group positions itself as a growth partner. By entrusting us with your engineering & assembly projects, you access an ecosystem of expert brands dedicated to ultra-precision. Together, we push the limits of mechanics to design the industrial solutions of tomorrow, with the guarantee of consistent quality and full traceability.
