About Gravoplan
Gravoplan Sàrl is a precision machining company based in Marin-Epagnier, Switzerland. Founded in 1992, the company initially produced building signage and carried out industrial engraving, such as flat and cylindrical engravings including vernier scales. In the course of technological adaptation, the business evolved into a precision machine shop and invested in a 3-axis machining center; a 5-axis machining center was added later. The company specializes in machining non-ferrous metals, in particular aluminium and brass, as well as plastics. Its service portfolio today includes 3- and 5-axis precision machining, flat and cylindrical industrial engraving, and the production of signage and front panels. Gravoplan supplies customers in Switzerland.
