Any mechanical assembly requires machining tolerances. In a complex assembly of several hundred or thousand parts the tolerances of each part are added up. This is why "clearances" of several millimeters are found once the assembly is completed.

These clearances have to be compensated in order for the assembly to fulfill its function.

To compensate assembly clearances, Lameco offers a solution, definitively technology-oriented : the laminated shim.

Principle : it is designed from metals or composites which have the property of "peeling" in the thickness direction into thin strips of a few hundredth millimeters.

LAMINATED SHIMS ADVANTAGES

Time saving, precision unquestionably improved, saving of grinding machine, all these elements account for the laminated shim's excellent quality/price ratio.

Speed and simplicity : peel laminated shims with forefinger or scalpel. No need for special tools, no grinding.

Precision : laminated shim guarantees optimal precision (which pilings cannot achieve in any way.)

Flexibility : they satisfy standards in wide range of industrial machine and assembly line applications
