In difficult times, a different strategy enables a company to stand out from the crowd. This oft-repeated maxim also holds true for small businesses. In the field of micromechanics, a subcontractor does not hesitate to invest in order to strengthen its highly specialised expertise.

Founded by Michel, the Vuichard company specialises in high-precision electrical discharge machining of very small components. Whether it’s micro-drilling on a Sarix machine, wire EDM using 0.03 mm wire on a Charmilles dual-wire machine, or die-sinking complex shapes using six machines of the same make, Vuichard is renowned for achieving the impossible with parts the size of a sugar cube – or even smaller.
