Springs manufacturing & metal works for Switzerland

Filame Group: Precision springs, stamping, and sheet metal works for Swiss industry. Swiss-quality tolerances, seamless EU-Swiss customs handling.

The Filame Group is a recognized manufacturing partner for Swiss industry, delivering high-precision springs, stamped parts, and laser-fabricated sheet metal components that adhere to the highest Swiss quality standards.

Operating out of Belgium with an advanced park of Swiss, German, and Japanese CNC machines, we offer Swiss manufacturers the ideal balance of precision craftsmanship, high automation, and competitive European pricing.

4 Core Precision Manufacturing Divisions for Swiss Industry

To meet the exacting demands of Swiss precision engineering, Filame offers four core capabilities:

1. Precision Springs & CNC Wire Forms

Custom compression, extension, and torsion springs manufactured from high-tensile spring steel, stainless alloys (1.4310, 1.4401), Inconel, and copper alloys. Our machine park includes advanced CNC spring coilers and multi-axis wire formers handling wire diameters down to 0.1 mm for miniature instrumentation.

2. High-Speed Metal Stamping & Deep Drawing

From medium runs to large-scale series of millions of parts, our stamping division operates over 50 mechanical and hydraulic presses ranging from 20T to 320T, supported by progressive transfer tooling, Schaal high-speed blanking lines, and an in-house tooling design bureau.

3. Engineered Clips, Flat Springs & Fasteners

Specialized leaf springs, retaining clips, electrical contact springs, and technical spring clips produced on Bihler automated multi-slide machines. We combine complex punching, stamping, and multi-plane bending into single high-speed operations with integrated optical inspection.

4. Laser Cutting, Sheet Metal Works & Robotic Welding

Fine and heavy industrial sheet metal fabrication utilizing high-precision fiber laser cutting, multi-axis CNC press brakes (up to 250T), and automated 6-axis robotic welding cells for structural brackets, enclosures, and welded assemblies.
