Corima technologies

Formed in 1973, CORIMA TECHNOLOGIES SAS developed the know-how to design and manufacture tools, and complex parts.

Our preferred sectors are aeronautical, the composites industry and medical.

Since 1997 CORIMA TECHNOLOGIES specializes in electroforming, which is a galvanic deposit of Nickel or Copper. The electroforming technology involves the deposit of a thick metal layer on to a model which is then demoulded to obtain a mould surface, or part.

In 2009 CORIMA TECHNOLOGIES expanded and modernized its manufacturing plant to reinforce its position as an international specialist in electroformed moulds, and to support its customers on projects of large sizes (Electroforming Nickel tanks: 7m × 4m × 2.5m).

The impression or nickel mould is generally used for the moulding of carbon fibres or prepreg glass fibre, which is widely used in the aerospace industry, for lay-up tools.

Another focus of nickel moulds is for RTM moulds (Resin Transfer Moulding) used in the production of polyester parts to improve the quality and production rate.

The thick electroplating (electroforming) also allows the production of parts for the aeronautical, space, and medical and industries.
