Automatic


The manufacturer of automata (metal, wood, paper, textile, resin) acts on the interior mechanisms and the exterior appearance of the characters. His mastery of wires, levers, steel chains and air tanks is as important as that of the various materials that make up the envelope of the automatons.

The automation profession is a micromarket. The clientele is mainly made up of individuals, private collectors, goldsmiths, jewelers, sculptors but also museums, amusement parks and street shows.
