What Mecanumeric does

Mecanumeric is a privately-held French manufacturer of professional CNC cutting and machining equipment, headquartered in Marssac-sur-Tarn near Albi, with operations spanning approximately 25 years and ~14,000 cumulative customers worldwide. The company's core technology spans six cutting and forming modalities—3, 4, and 5-axis milling, high-pressure water jet (up to 6200 bar via KMT intensifier pumps), fibre-optic laser, CNC lathe, knife cutting, and thermoforming—delivered through a multi-product portfolio organized into the MECAPRO/MECAPLUS/MECAPLUS HP/MECAEASY industrial lines, the NORMAPROFIL 5-axis series for large parts and thermoforming, the CHARLYDENTAL 4- and 5-axis dental mills, the MECAJET II/QUICKJET II/PUREJET/LABJET/WAZER waterjet range, the MECALASE/LASEC laser equipment, and the CharlyRobot compact education line. Two wholly-owned sub-brands—CharlyRobot (education and training, integrated in 2014) and CharlyDENTAL (dental laboratories and prosthetics, integrated in 2014)—address distinct verticals alongside primary markets in aerospace, ground transportation, plastics, signage, advanced materials, and food processing.

Mecanumeric operates a vertically integrated production model with its own design office and production plant in France, enabling both standard CNC equipment and custom-engineered bespoke machines, and delivering precision down to ±0.025mm repeatability on flagship NORMAPROFIL machines with spindle speeds up to 50,000 rpm for dental applications. Strategic technology partnerships with KMT Waterjet (high-pressure pumps) and WorkNCdental (CAM software for dental) anchor two of its most differentiated product lines.

The business model is a hybrid industrial OEM model with one-time machine sales as the primary revenue driver, complemented by recurring revenue from consumables, spare parts, and accessories sold through a dedicated e-commerce storefront; after-sales service and maintenance (12-month warranty, 5-day replacement, training programs); and quote-based enterprise B2B pricing with a €150 minimum order, credit card/PayPal payment processing, and international distribution via 10 country-specific websites covering France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Belgium, Morocco, Austria, Latvia, and Lithuania. End customers include industrial manufacturers, dental prosthesis laboratories, engineering schools and FABLABs, prototyping firms, signage producers, and food processors—evidenced by named customers BIODENTHÈSE (seven CHARLYDENTAL units), NOVERTEC, ARRK, IMT Mines Albi, TDJ Normandie, Saint-Brieuc Fonderie, DEMETACRILATO, ADP Enseignes, and Lycée La Salle Avignon.
