Charles Lauzier, aluminum foundry and precision machining

Founder since 1936

The CHARLES LAUZIER foundry has built its reputation through its innovations, developments and research. This is our DNA. With this foundation, our company has established itself as a leader in the creation of technical parts by gravity casting , for sectors such as railways, construction, medical, food and industry. More than products, these are solutions that we develop with our customers. Integrated from the design to the assembly of parts, we provide our expertise across the entire value chain.

Operational excellence and quality are the fruits of a desire and a culture of surpassing oneself.

CHARLES LAUZIER

Aluminum in motion

We supply demanding sectors of activity:
RAILWAY, FOOD, MEDICAL, BUILDING

Our technology and expertise guarantee the quality of the parts produced: creation of 3D parts, integration of standards and constraints, solution proposals, design assistance.

We master all manufacturing operations
of our parts

Integrated across the entire manufacturing value chain of our products, we provide an economical and qualitative solution.

We are concerned about the societal and environmental issues of the 21st century

We are resolutely turned towards the future: eco-design of parts, manufacturing made in France, reduction of its carbon footprint, working in an eco-system, openness towards the future.

Our performance is our daily OBSESSION

Quality of products and service, productivity, continuous improvement, safety and training are at the heart of our concerns.

Design and development of parts

We support our customers from the design phase , offering expert advice to optimize the functionality and manufacturability of parts.

Aluminum foundry by gravity die casting

Our expertise allows us to produce complex and resistant parts, suitable for a variety of applications.

Finishing and heat treatment

After casting, the parts are cut, ground, deburred . We carry out heat treatment (quenching and tempering) in order to give them the required mechanical characteristics.

Precision machining

Integrated into machining, we carry out all the rework on our numerically controlled centers or using traditional methods.

Quality control and testing

Our quality laboratory allows us to carry out destructive and non-destructive testing on our parts.

We have been ISO 9001 certified since 2006

Assembly and assembly of parts

Our assembly workshop allows us to deliver complete functions to our customers. We guarantee the supply of complementary supplies.
