Sector 02 · Defence

Machining, welding and mechanical assembly.

Margon manufactures mechanical components and assemblies for defence sector projects, with the same processes and the same plants that support its rail work.

Technology and manufacturing for the defence sector

Margon applies its industrial experience to the manufacture of metal components and assemblies for the defence sector, combining machining, welding and mechanical assembly.

We work on projects that demand precision, industrial capacity and control throughout the entire manufacturing process.

  • 01

    Machining

    Manufacture and machining of metal components adapted to the specific requirements of each project.

  • 02

    Welding

    Welding processes and manufacture of metal assemblies for industrial and defence applications.

  • 03

    Mechanical assembly

    Integration and assembly of mechanical components and sub-assemblies within more complex projects.

Five fronts of work

How Margon's work is organised within a defence programme, from the first drawing to delivery of the assembly.

Capabilities

What Margon can take on within a defence programme, and with what means.

The scope is agreed programme by programme: from the supply of machined components to the delivery of assembled and inspected units. The starting capacity is that of two plants that already work daily with steel and aluminium in controlled series.

Core capabilities

  • Machined components
  • Welded assemblies
  • Support structures
  • Enclosures and cabinets
  • Unit assembly
  • Finishes and protection

Processes and production means

Cutting, bending, punching, welding and machining under one roof.

The complete chain is in-house, so a part does not change supplier between one operation and the next. That is what protects the lead time when the assembly is critical, and what keeps control over every step of the process.

Core capabilities

  • Cutting and punching
  • Bending
  • Welding
  • CNC machining
  • Mechanical assembly
  • Surface preparation

Traceability and control

Knowing where every part comes from and whose hands it has passed through.

Material and process tracking is part of Margon's quality system and follows the assembly from raw material to delivery. The specific requirements that apply to each programme are agreed with the customer before work starts.

Core capabilities

  • Material traceability
  • Process traceability
  • Dimensional inspection
  • Delivery documentation

Assembly types

The shape of the parts that leave the plant for this sector.

Load-bearing structures, frames, brackets, enclosures and welded assemblies of different scales. The geometry adapts to the programme; what does not change is that the assembly arrives assembled and inspected rather than in parts.

Core capabilities

  • Frames and structures
  • Brackets and anchorages
  • Enclosures
  • Welded assemblies

Manufacturing and machining

From sheet and section to an assembly ready for integration.

Manufacturing is organised around complete assemblies, not isolated operations: the same team follows the part from material preparation to final assembly, and the assembly is verified before it leaves the plant.

Core capabilities

  • Material preparation
  • Forming
  • Assembly welding
  • Finish machining
  • Dimensional verification
  • Preparation for delivery
