Farinia Group - Setforge Engineering

Setforge Engineering provides its forging business expertise to internal (companies of Farinia group) and external customers.

Based on its expertise, Setforge Engineering is today in a position to offer its services to all clients who wish to develop an optimal forged solution.

In practice, Setforge Engineering works in close collaboration with the consulting firms of its clients, achieving to meet their expectations with respect to minimum cost at each development stage and the finalization of the project (lean design & lean manufacturing).

Setforge Engineering acts as an innovation machine who knows how to seize today’s challenges in order to realize tomorrow’s projects.

 

MISSIONS

Setforge Engineering is dedicated to provide top quality services in the following sectors:

  • Co-design

Setforge Engineering supports its customers during the early stages of product development. Taking into consideration at an early stage the characteristics of the forging process allows to reduce the development time and the optimization of the manufacturing costs of the finished product.

  • Technical innovation

With a focus on the future, Setforge Engineering keeps an open mind and is involved in innovating projects in various business sectors. Setforge Engineering's primary target is to define a feasible and profitable solution, not hesitating to offer unconventional products/process solutions.

  • R & D on products and processes

For each and every project Setforge Engineering aims for the best cost/efficiency relationship by relying on its business skills: from the shape optimization of a product to the selection of a suitable material but also by selecting the most efficient production means and/or fabrication process.

  • Technical and technological Intelligence with university and technical partners.
