CECOMP has an in-house metrology department in each plant, capable of independently measuring, approving and certifying from the individual part to the complete vehicle, meeting the required technical/functional specifications.

The metrology departments support all project phases, both with dimensional measurements (in 3D) of products and equipment, and with 3D scanning (photogrammetry) of models/parts/sub-assemblies/vehicles for “reverse engineering” of them.

In the case of dimensional measurements, the machines are connected with the technical department and, using appropriate software, an automatic comparison is made between the actual geometry of the part and the theoretical geometry of the corresponding CAD model.

In the case of three-dimensional scanning, the point cloud detected on the part is transferred to the technical office to be transformed into CAS or CAD models.

Through its workshops equipped with around 40 presses (hydraulic and mechanical up to 2,000 t), CECOMP is able to manage:

Verification and set-up of moulds.

Mass production of stamped parts in sheet metal (steel, HSS and aluminium), on low and high volumes.

Furthermore, thanks to the synergy with the 2D and 3D laser cutting departments, CECOMP is able to supply fully manufactured parts ready to be assembled on the production line.

CECOMP autonomously manages the entire process: from the cycle study to the design of the tooling, from the construction and set-up of the tooling to the just-in-time supply of parts or sub-assemblies to the Customer’s plant.

The CECOMP group also has an in-house additive manufacturing division that deals with design, prototype development as well as additive manufacturing using the most modern and innovative 3D printing technologies available, followed by a finishing phase that can be carried out to make functional or aesthetic improvements and includes multiple processes such as polishing or sandblasting.

Our team of technicians has gained extensive experience in the 3D printing sector thanks to our in-house facilities, and is able to quickly and qualitatively satisfy any type of request from customers, both automotive and other sectors.

One of the peculiarities of CECOMP’s operational areas, which is now rare at international level, is the team of craftsmen specialised in manual sheet metal forming, equipped with all the necessary tools and installations and in complete synergy with the other departments (milling machines, technical office, laser cutting, etc.).

This makes it possible to produce, very quickly and with minimal investment, metal parts (steel, aluminium) with characteristics similar to those of production, which are extremely useful in the development projects of new vehicle models, in the production of one-offs and in the restoration of historic vehicles.

The milling department has a total of 20 CNC milling centres (3 and 5 axes, including high-speed) operating in two different areas, one for machining metals (cast iron, steel, aluminium) and the other for machining resins.

The software used for these machining centres is TEBIS, which is currently state-of-the-art in the sector thanks to the possibility of being able to analyse entire production processes on screen and optimise them well before entering the workshop, and to the close interaction between CAM and CAD.

The skills of the operators, the specialisation of some of the machining centres and the strong integration with the other departments of the company (technical department and metrology, in particular) allow them to operate with high efficiency and quality.

Starting from CAM data, through appropriate operational procedures and in accordance with the specific objectives of the project, it is possible to generate any type of volume (even of large size and high complexity), revise it and validate it.
