CORDM participated in March 2022 in a CSR assessment by an independent assessment service.

The objective of the EcoVadis CSR assessment methodology is to determine the quality of a company’s CSR management system through its policies, actions and results. The evaluation covers 21 points grouped into 4 themes: Environment, Social & Human Rights, Ethics and Responsible Purchasing.

CORDM has been evaluated on key issues according to its size, location and sector of activity.

Assessments based on documented evidence are refined in scorecards, with scores between zero and one hundred (0 and 100), and medals (bronze, silver, gold) where appropriate. (A score below 40/100 automatically disqualifies the candidate)

In addition, the evaluation sheets contain advice on strengths and areas of improvement that CORDM can follow to focus its sustainability efforts and develop corrective action plans to improve its CSR performance.

CORDM obtained a score of 58/100 with a silver medal!

Congratulations and thanks to all those who participated and got involved in this evaluation.

CORDM will participate for the very first time in the GLOBAL INDUSTRIE exhibition (formerly MIDEST) from May 17th to 20th 2022 in Paris Nord Villepinte.

This is a good opportunity for CORDM to promote its know-how in the manufacture of high precision gears/repair of industrial gearboxes and to better understand the market to meet the expectations of its customers.

Our stand will be located in Hall 6 in the “Machining & Material Removal” area. Stand n° 6S78.

The stand number will be communicated to you very soon.

Our machinery will be expanded soon with the arrival of:

One cylindrical grinding machine (internal, external and polygonal)

CORDM continues to invest with the arrival in November of a new TACCHELLA PROFLEX C3 2100 grinding machine for precision grinding.

The Tacchella Proflex C3 2100  can grind cylindrical and polygonal parts up to Ø650×2100 mm with a maximum weight between centres of 1500 kg.

Proflex is a new range of external and internal CNC grinding machines that encloses the whole concept of flexible production. The flexibility of PROFLEX lies in its range of wheel heads configurations which allows the use of several tools in different combinations. Up to four conventional or high-speed CBN wheels can be mounted simultaneously.

One centre grinding machine

CORDM has also planned to invest in a HENNINGER centre grinding machine:

Ø650 x 2000 (steady rest max Ø 450) and max weight 2 000 Kgs – max centre Ø 100 mm.

Commissioning is planned for March 2022.

Please do not hesitate to contact us for any further information.

As a supplier of gears for 40 years to the largest gearbox manufacturers, CORDM can now expertise, repair and improve your equipment. We also propose the design, the manufacturing and assembly of new gearboxes for non-standard applications.

Since January 2019, significant investments in equipment (washing machine, shot blasting, painting cabin, roller heating, hydraulic presses up to 250T, vacuum test bench, overhead cranes up to 20T…) have been made. Thanks to an extension of 1000m² dedicated exclusively to maintenance, we can now take your gearboxes in charge in our facilities.

Upon receipt of your equipment, an expertise will systematically be carried out. A complete report will be made followed by a detailed price quotation including:

• cleaning, opening the gear unit, analysing possible failures,
• detailed examination of all parts,
• non-destructive testing of teeth (magnetic particle inspection)
• three-dimensional control of your housings and mobiles
• the replacement of defective mobiles or parts
• the systematic replacement of bearings and sealing rings,
• the reassembly and adjustment of the clearances
• the tests of the gearboxes on a test bench without load.
• Painting

This new activity is a great development opportunity for CORDM but above all a support for your maintenance teams in the expertise of your gearboxes.

Our team of experienced and competent technicians stays at your disposal.
Do not hesitate to contact us.

The current situation related to the Covid-19 coronavirus does not allow the 10th edition of the Industry Week to be organised under the best conditions. The Ministry of Economy and Finance of France and all the partners of the event have therefore decided to postpone the 2020 edition, initially scheduled from March 30 to April 5, to next autumn, from November 16 to 22, 2020.

For several months now, we have been implementing actions at CORDM to strengthen the security of our international “supply chain” in cooperation with the French Customs.

This is reflected in tighter controls on on-site access and buildings, as well as in our commercial relationships with transport companies, inspection and monitoring procedures for means of transport, tighter recruitment policies for employees, particularly for sensitive positions, and greater awareness among the company’s employees of safety and security issues.

CORDM wanted to enhance this approach by obtaining the “AEOS- Safety Security” certification. This certification allows any company established within the European Union (EU) carrying out an activity related to international trade (small or large companies) to acquire a quality label on the customs and security and safety processes it implements.

Issued in France by the French customs, the AEO authorization is recognized throughout the EU and in countries that are signatories to mutual recognition agreements.

The advantages of the Authorized Economic Operator status authorization are numerous. In addition to the facilities provided by customs and security and safety legislation, the approach was structuring for CORDM. It has made it possible to evaluate and control its customs and security/safety processes. Its organisation has been optimised by taking into account customs and logistics functions, better communication between employees and the implementation or improvement of legibility and internal control tools.

The French Customs visited CORDM for a certification audit on the 7th and the 8^th of November 2018.

CORDM obtained the “safety and security” certification on 26 November 2018.

The certificate is available on request. Do not hesitate to ask us for it.
