The challenge
Fermob, a specialist in designer outdoor furniture, launched a new range of products that had to meet rigorous quality criteria, particularly in terms of aesthetic precision. One of the main challenges was that the parts visible after welding had to remain completely free of distortion. A conventional welding solution was not suitable, as it could cause visible deformation on the faces of the parts, compromising the aesthetics and quality of the final product.
Our solution
Proposal for laser welding solution
We proposed a precision laser welding solution, allowing components to be welded without causing visible deformation on the exterior of the parts. This welding technology, which does not generate excessive heat,
preserved the aesthetic integrity of the parts, a priority for Fermob.Testing and validation
We conducted rigorous tests on various materials and components from the Fermob range to validate our solution’s ability to meet precision and aesthetic quality requirements. Thanks to our laser welding technology, we guaranteed maximum welding precision without altering the appearance of the parts after manufacture.
Ongoing collaboration with Fermob
After validating the laser welding solution, we worked closely with Fermob to ensure that this technology was seamlessly integrated into their manufacturing process. As a result, we became Fermob’s testing and technological innovation laboratory, helping them to
search for advanced technical solutions for their products.
