Processing equipment for laser subcontracting
extreme precision, reliability and regularity for over 35 years.
ZIEMEX uses its expertise in laser welding to support
- boiler makers who incorporate our plates into their equipment,
- as well as process engineers and manufacturers, who design their own equipment but need our unique know-how in laser welding and manual welding for making pillow plates.
Our specific mastery allows us to weld fine plates to thicker plates in the flat position, which is a key stage for making the single-embossed pillow plates and pillow plates used for tanks, crystallisers, reactors and other thermal equipment.
This approach gives our customers the guarantee of high precision, reliability and regularity, with the benefit of advanced technology and expertise acquired over more than 35 years.
CHALLENGES AND REQUIREMENTS
laser subcontracting market
Manufacturers who approach ZIEMEX are mainly looking for:
- Access to cutting-edge technology: offer customers enhanced thermal performance while reducing manufacturing lead times and production costs.
- Technical support: assistance with thermo-hydraulic sizing, bending, expansion, and design adaptation to process constraints.
- Wide range: various dimensions, materials (stainless steel, duplex, superduplex, alloy, titanium, etc.), and design pressures available with multiple thickness combinations (1/1 mm, 1.2/1.2 mm, 1.5/1.5 mm, 2/2 mm, 2.5/2.5 mm) according to recognized design codes.
- Short lead times: thanks to our 3 laser machines operating 24/7.
- Reliability: laser welds qualified by QMOS, with continuous weld inspection using AI.
ZIEMEX satisfies these requirements by providing precision, reliability and regularity with perfect control over laser welding technology and 35 years’ experience in the field.
