Our areas of production

PRESSURE FOUNDRY OF ZINC ALLOYS (ZAMAK)

Used in many industries, pressure foundry of zinc alloys, also called Zamak , is ideal for obtaining thin dimensions and/or complex shapes.

Zamak is composed of zinc and:

• Aluminium
• Magnesium
• Copper

Advantages of Zamak

• High productivity tooling, very durable over time
• Low maintenance costs – precise tolerances (Shrinkage of 1/1000)
• Reduced cycle time
• Resistance to corrosion
• Excellent mechanical properties
• High performance electromagnetic protection

PLASTIC TRANSFORMATION USING THERMOPLASTIC INJECTION

Plastic transformation by injecting is ideal for obtaining finished parts of complex shapes, and weights ranging from a few grams to several kilograms, in one single operation.

The injection process also allows for the production of several parts at the same time, inside the same injection tool. It is also ideal for developing and producing a part composed of several materials.

Advantages of thermoplastic injection

• High productivity tooling, very durable over time
• Allows for a gain of weight for your parts
• Design of parts with complex shapes
• A part is finalized when it exits the mold, with no need for retouching/reworking
• Possibility to inject using bio-sourced or biodegradable materials
• Excellent mechanical properties

Construction of tooling

• Tooling is designed to obtain maximum efficiency in terms of cycle time and maximum reliability in mass production.
• We keep up a panel of local toolmakers with high performance in terms of quality, costs and delivery times, and can offer you tooling that is Made in France. Inversely, FPSA is also able to suggest low-cost solutions.

Finishing and finalizing parts

• DEBURRING PROCESS
  
  
  • Surface finishing: This process consists of deburring and polishing the surface of metallic parts. The parts are placed inside a chamber, along with a deburring or polishing medium, water and an additive. Rotation or vibration produces an abrasion over the surface and over any sharp edges on the parts.
  • Shot blasting: This operation subjects metallic parts to repeated hammering of abrasive grains propelled at high speed using compressed air or centrifugal force.
  • Thermal deburring: This operation uses combustion to remove excess material, burrs, which have formed during the production of a part.



• SURFACE TREATMENT FOR PROTECTION OR DECORATION
  
  
  • All types of treatment on steel parts by electrolytic deposition or by surface chemical transformation (nickel plating, galvanizing, painting, chrome plating, electro-zincing)



• MARKING
  
  
  • Pad printing
  • Hot stamping



• ASSEMBLY AND FINISHING
  
  
  • Assembly of complete product and packaging
    
  • Assembly and 100% quality control of parts, using automated special machines
    
  • Assembly at the exit of injection press, with 100% quality control
    
  • Finishing by threading, machining, boring on zamak parts
