ABOUT US
The success of the company is based on an excellent mix of theoretical know-how on micro mechanics and flexures acquired at EPF of Lausanne in the late 90’s, where the two of the three co-founders, Stefano Bottinelli and Yann Mabillard, were working. This knowledge, followed by several
years of practical experience designing flexure-based motion systems, and the capacity to manufacture and assemble all components necessary to build the final solution, has led to a winning combination. The core know-how of the company is based on the
capability of mastering two technologies: the design of high precision products based on flexures, and the manufacturing of high precision mechanical elements with EDM. The founders of Mecartex are proud of such a fine example of high precision solutions –made 100% in Switzerland.
MANAGEMENT



MISSION
Flexures are the best technology to fulfil future requirements of high precision industry and Mecartex’s objective is to maintain a leadership position as the best product and solution provider for high precision measuring and positioning systems.
ACTIVITIES
Mecartex is focused on a providing specialized engineering services: the development of high precision systems for measuring and positioning devices. Mecartex leverages the strong know-how in flexures to build high precision mechanical systems that have characteristics not yet attained by competitors using more conventional technologies.
High precision products
High precision products
Core activities, two main areas:
Mecartex develops and manufactures high precision products, combining conventional and the flexures technology, such as the 3D Nanotouch Probe, Micro Positioning stages or very precise aligner and force sensors used in industrial applications like the assembly process of chips or the micro manufacturing in the Automotive industry. Mecartex supplies OEM customized modules for high precision systems.Precision manufacturing
Precision manufacturing
Core activities, two main areas:
Mecartex manufactures complex, high precision mechanical parts using the Milling and Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) process. The Mecartex specific technical experience and rare know-how is essential to manufacturing complex mechanical parts. This knowledge is also a fundamental advantage in defining a “design for manufacturing” for complex products, in particular for flexure based products.
