Machining of profiles
Profile machining, the core of Palumbo Industries’ performance
At Palumbo Industries, profile machining is not an adaptation — it is our specialty. This technology enables us to manufacture complex parts from profiled bars, pushing beyond the limits of conventional bar turning. Our in-house technical department develops custom machining processes tailored to the geometry, material, and constraints of each project. Our transfer machines, designed and customized in-house, deliver high productivity, perfect repeatability, and consistent quality for production runs ranging from 10,000 to 1,000,000 parts.
Our advantage: custom-designed machining processes for parts that conventional bar-turning cannot produce.
Benefits of profile machining
- Technological disruption vs. sintering, forging, stamping or bar turning
- Micrometer tolerances and best possible dimensional stability
- Lower metal consumption and reduction of metal waste
- Optimized cycle time thanks to multiple station machines
- Adaptability to various materials and markets
Machining of steel, aluminum and copper-based profiles - Our expertise about materials
Every material requires a specific know-how.
Palumbo Industries masters machining of steel, aluminum and copper alloys and tailors its processes to each metal’s constraints.
Machining of aluminum
Lightweight, rigid and recyclable, aluminum is at the heart of our production for electric vehicles, aeronautics, and connectors. Our machining processes of extruded profiles ensure micrometer accuracy and a flawless surface finish.
Learn moreMachining of steel
As a material dedicated to performance, steel delivers robustness and stability for demanding mechanical applications. Palumbo Industries masters machining of cold drawn steel profiles, including heat treatments that enhance the reliability and the lifespan of the products.
Learn moreMachining of copper alloys
For electrical and connector applications, we produce high-conductivity copper and brass components. Our machining processes ensure particulate cleanliness, full traceability, and high-performance silver plating.

Camera inspection, scanning et metrology for profile machining
Every part produced from profile machining undergoes systematic inspections :
- Periodic controlling on the production line
- 80 % of production undergoes a camera inspection
- 100 % inspection before shipment
- Measurements ins an air conditioned metrology room
These procedures ensure a near-zero PPM defect rate and a full batch traceability.
