Correa milling machines' robustness, precision and the quality of after-sales service made a difference for this SME

Since 2000, when Catoire-Semi acquired the first Correa machine, this family company from France has trusted in the Spanish manufacturer as main supplier. Nowadays, it has twelve machines in its workshop, nine of them are from the Correa brand, used for the machining of large parts.

The Correa machines offer a great rigidity and precision, which is an essential requirement for hard roughing works with materials like Inconel and titanium, used in the aeronautical sector. This sector means for Catoire two thirds of its turnover, and the remaining business is completed with the automotive sector. In both of them they manufacture forging dies and foundry moulds as well as pre-machined forges for aeronautics.

The last machine arrived to Catoire, the FOX, is a milling machine with Y travel 4250 mm and X travel 6000 mm.
