SMPLA personnel are trained to recondition seals in the industrial market and return them to serviceable condition. If necessary, new components can be manufactured from similar materials so that the performance of the original product can be doubled and at much lower costs than the OEM would charge. Using state-of-the-art computer controlled measuring equipment, SMPLA is able to reverse engineer assembled seals, thereby saving our customers money and improving delivery times.
Our staff is skilled in manufacturing using Lean Manufacturing principles such as cellular manufacturing and 5S principles. Our manufacturing area includes state-of-the-art CNC machines such as lathe-mills, bore grinders, universal cylindrical grinders, Blanchard grinders, and lapping machines. Part diameters ranging from 2” to 16” (50mm to 400mm) are typical of our machined products, although we have the ability to manually machine parts up to 54” (1350mm) in diameter. Typical milling capacities are up to 20″ by 40″ (500mm to 1000mm) plates. We have experience machining most standard and exotic materials.
The SMPLA manufacturing plant is 100% heated in a controlled manner to prevent dimensional changes due to the thermal expansion coefficients of the materials. With a total of over 85.000 square feet (8.500 square meters) of build space and over 100 CNC machines, we have ample space to manufacture your parts. Parts are inspected using state-of-the-art Zeiss coordinate measuring machines. We also have our own heat treatment furnaces and are certified to perform magnetic particle and liquid penetrant inspections by NADCAP, an aerospace accreditation program.
Products supplied by SMPLA are manufactured to the highest standards and our systems are certified to ISO9001-2015 and AS9102D. Our highly trained staff is bilingual and eager to help you with your next project.
