Manufacture of components for the distribution and control of fluids

The fluidics sector involves manufacturing components for circulating and controlling fluids under pressure or with sealing constraints.

ARCOM Industrie produces technical parts and sub-assemblies for pneumatic, hydraulic and gas systems, taking into account the dimensional and functional requirements specific to these applications.

Constraints specific to fluid distribution

Fluidic components include sealing areas and sensitive functional surfaces.

Controlled surface finishes, burr-free edges and precise bearing surfaces are critical to ensure the assemblies work properly.

Consistent production and reliable deliveries are also key criteria in this market, which often has fast-changing production needs.

Materials used

Fluidic components are made from stainless steel, aluminium, steel, brass or nickel-based alloys such as Hastelloy or Monel, depending on pressure, corrosion and operating environment constraints.

The choice of material depends on the functional and mechanical constraints and on the device's operating environment.

Industrial processes used to manufacture fluidic components

Manufacturing fluidic components draws on precision machining and bar turning, with particular attention to functional and sealing areas.

Depending on the application, ARCOM Industrie also carries out additional operations such as laser marking for identification or specific finishes such as anodising.

Metrology and inspection

Coordinate measuring, roughness testing, optical inspection and traceability ensure dimensional compliance and production validation in line with industry requirements.

Assembly

Sub-assembly integration, additional operations and specific tests enable us to deliver components ready to integrate into complex industrial systems.

Laser marking and welding

Laser marking for traceability, micro-welding and specific operations suited to regulated technical environments.

Prototyping & pre-series support

Technical analysis, feasibility validation and industrialisation preparation smooth the transition from prototype to series production.

Precision machining

5-axis milling, turning, complex bar turning and EDM enable us to produce technical parts with controlled tolerances and surface finishes suited to integration constraints.

Applications

Our parts are used in particular in the following sectors:

Pneumatics
Hydraulics
Gas
Petroleum
Food applications

Threads and technical configurations

Manufacturing fittings and fluidic components involves many thread configurations. ARCOM Industrie produces metric, ISO, UNC, UNF, NPT, PG and Whitworth threads, among others, according to the specification. Our machine fleet can also produce parts up to Ø 250 mm.
