RDO SPRINGS - Ressorts de haute technicité

RDO SPRINGS manufactures springs for different sectors of activity with very high dimensional requirements, resistance to loads or resistance to aggressive environments.

The validation files are complex, generate high-level technical exchanges and numerous tests are carried out in order to validate the plans and processes defined.

EN 9100 quality certification is a requirement for the majority of these sectors.

Specific materials are used to achieve compliance with customer requirements.

Major sector examples :

DEFENSE : springs for manufacturers delivering DASSAULT AVIATION fighter planes (MIRAGE-RAFALE), helicopters, ground armament (tanks and assault vehicles, missiles) or nautical (submarines)

AERONAUTICS : transport aircraft (AIRBUS), transport helicopters

AEROSPATIAL : springs for OEMs delivering parts for ARIANE rocket, VEGA rockets (small size rockets), satellite engine parts

MEDICAL : compression springs for companies that will manufacture pumps and valves for sprays or atomizers (absolute cleanliness of the parts – high accuracy of dosages), precision equipment for bone surgery, blood catheters, ophthalmological probes, artificial respirators

NUCLEAR : springs for regulation and pressure systems

ROBOTICS : parts of industrial robots, control robots

ADVANCED INDUSTRIES : traction springs for machines with very high work rates (e.g. weaving looms with fatigue and stress tests)
