LMT BELIN

LMT BELIN, based in Lavancia, France, is specialized in precision tools for machining plastics, light metals and composite materials.

Founded by Yvon Belin in 1962, the company first developed tools for machining spectacle frames and components. In response to the growing demand from the French automobile industry for tools with which aluminum could be machined, Belin began to develop PCD tools.


Today the company's range of products includes solid carbide and PCD shanked mills, form milling cutters and special cutters, high-performance reamers, engraving tools and sheet-cutting knives, as well as special tools for the aerospace industry.

Belin has been part of LMT since 2001. Belin and Onsrud together form the group's competence center for the machining of composite materials.
