Our capabilitiesA tailored
industrial solution.
For 28 years, every project has found its answer in the group’s modular organization: we step in for a single task or end to end, from design through industrialization to production.
Mechanical engineering office
Where every project begins: designing a part that performs, can be manufactured, and hits the right cost.
Origin 3D, the group’s founding company, designs your products end to end: from functional specification to prototype, including industrial design, mechanics and electronics. As a multi-process engineering office, it designs for injection molding, machining, sheet metal, thermoforming and extrusion.
Industrialization is built in from the start: design for manufacturing, design to cost, eco-design and life cycle analysis. The team works in CATIA, SOLIDWORKS, NX and Inventor, runs mold flow studies, and has partnered with an industrial designer for more than fifteen years, up to full-scale virtual reality mockups.
- Functional specification
- CAD, drafting, mold flow
- Design to cost, eco-design
- Virtual reality mockup
Tooling and prototyping
Validate the design before committing to production, with the right production equipment.
The prototype shop validates form and function before you invest in production tooling: resin 3D printing (Formlabs 3BL, up to 335 × 200 × 320 mm), FDM (Bambu Lab H2D, up to 350 × 320 × 325 mm), and resin molds to mold prototypes in the production material.
Since the acquisition of Érosion 38 in 2016, mold building, rework, maintenance and modification are handled in-house at Factory Plast: more autonomy and responsiveness over the whole life of the tooling.

Plastic injection molding and assembly, in France
Technical parts in low, medium or high volumes, to automotive and medical requirements.
Factory Plast has been molding since 2005, on a fleet of 14 presses suited to low, medium and high volumes: 7 single-shot presses from 35 to 120 metric tons, 4 from 160 to 280 t and 3 two-shot presses from 220 to 450 t. The site handles assembly, marking, warehousing and delivery.
Its materials department works with 40% recycled material and develops custom-formulated engineering materials based on PA or PA 12, notably for radiation protection, as well as scallop shell-filled polypropylene and stainless steel fiber-filled polyamide. Factory Plast is IATF 16949 and ISO 13485 certified.
- 14 presses, 35 to 450 t
- Single-shot, two-shot, overmolding
- Filled and recycled materials
- Assembly, marking, logistics
Plastic injection molding and assembly, in Tunisia
A second source for molding and assembly, within the same group.
Perfect Plast, our Sousse site fully renovated in 2022, runs 9 presses suited to low and medium volumes: 4 single-shot presses from 200 to 300 metric tons and 5 two-shot presses from 100 to 200 t.
Alongside molding, the site has a machining shop and an assembly and finishing shop.
- 9 presses, including 5 two-shot
- Machining shop
- Assembly and finishing
- Logistics
Precision machining
Metal and plastic machining, specialized in medical devices.
Precimade machines implants (hip, knee, shoulder, spine, extremities, dental) and instruments, from prototype to production. Its fleet includes 10 Swiss-type lathes, 3 NTX mill-turn centers, an NLX turning center, 3 DMU and Chiron milling centers, a wire EDM and a robotic cleaning cell.
It machines titanium (Ti-6Al-4V), medical stainless steels (316L, X15TN, X17, Z30, F16PH…) and engineering polymers (PEEK, PPSU, polypropylene, UHMW-PE 1020 and 1050), and handles finishing: bead blasting, vibratory finishing, anodizing, laser marking, electropolishing. Inspection relies on two coordinate measuring machines, including a Hexagon Global S, and a Keyence LM-X.
- 10 Swiss-type lathes, 7 CNC centers
- Titanium, stainless, PEEK, UHMW-PE
- Finishing and laser marking
- ISO 13485:2016
