......A pillar in the history of the district, the Sculfort building was built by Gustave Sculfort in 1852. Hardware and the first machine tools were then manufactured there. In 1914, 1,200 workers worked there. The company, like many others, definitively disappeared in the 1960s. The buildings will however be reused in the 1990s to install the Luna (the city's concert hall) and the Espace Sculfort, one of the main exhibition centers.......
Pilier de l'histoire du quartier, le bâtiment Sculfort fut construit par Gustave Sculfort en 1852. On y fabriquait alors de la quincaillerie et les premières machines-outils. En 1914, 1 200 ouvriers y travaillent. La société, comme beaucoup d'autres, disparut définitivement dans les années 1960. Les bâtiments seront toutefois réutilisés dans les années 1990 pour y installer la Luna (la salle de concerts de la ville) et l'Espace Sculfort, l'un des principaux centres d'expositions.

SCULFORT YEL
A NAME, A BRAND, A GUARANTEE OF QUALITY
Recognized throughout the world as the specialist in the field of railway maintenance and heavy machining equipment, Sculfort YEL continues, thanks to its specialized machines, to conquer new markets.
The strong industrial past of the Sambre is closely linked to the name of Sculfort. In fact, the factory employed over 1,000 people at the start of the 20th Century. This expert in specialized machine tools, the flagship of the Sambrian industry, has acquired a reputation and a unique know-how in the world. Today with its specialized machines in the field of railway maintenance, Sculfort Yel continues this image of seriousness and reliability which has made its reputation.
Machines specializing in railways
For Anthony Leroy, manager of the Maubeugeois site, "Sculfort has always manufactured specialized machines, we continue to do so, to exploit this know-how in the field of machining and profiling of train wheels, trams ...". We manufacture specific machines which then go to maintenance sites around the world, confirms the site manager. Only 10 factories in the world are able to offer this service.
A trial, a requirement
Over time, the wheels of a train become deformed and are no longer perfectly round. Technically, a flat forms, which causes problems with vibrations and the grip of the wheel on the rail. Before, to remedy the problem, it was necessary to dismantle the axles in order to profile the wheels and return them to their original shapes. This technique increased the risks for trains due to assembly and disassembly.
Today, thanks to Sculfort machines, maintenance can be carried out directly on the wheels without having to dismantle the axles. The Sambrian company manufactures these machines, called "pit towers". It buys the parts in Europe, assembles them and adapts the technology to deliver machines on demand. The machine is then tested and verified with the customer who comes to see it working.
Know-how that is exported all over the world
“We see a lot of people in our workshops, because customers come to Maubeuge to take delivery of their machine,” argues Anthony Leroy. Once received, the machines are exported for installation on site. Assembly, training and maintenance are supported by the company. Shanghai is already on its 4th order, mainly for the maintenance of its metro, and the city of New Delhi in India is not to be outdone. A research and development unit makes it possible to design the machines and adapt them to customer demand and to the environment in which they will operate. The company relies on around ten employees: technicians and engineers.

SCULFORT YEL
UN NOM, UNE MARQUE, UN GAGE DE QUALITE
Reconnu dans le monde entier comme le spécialiste dans le domaine de la maintenance ferroviaire et équipement d’usinage lourd, Sculfort YEL continue, grâce à ses machines spécialisées, à conquérir de nouveaux marchés.
Le fort passé industriel de la Sambre est intimement lié au nom de Sculfort. En effet l’usine embauchait plus de 1 000 personnes au début du XXè Siècle. Cet expert de la machine-outil spécialisée, fleuron de l’industrie Sambrienne  a acquis une notoriété et un savoir-faire unique dans le monde. Aujourd’hui avec ses machines spécialisées dans le domaine de la maintenance ferroviaire, Sculfort Yel fait perdurer cette image de sérieux, de fiabilité qui a fait sa notoriété.
Des machines spécialisées dans le ferroviaire
Pour Anthony Leroy, responsable du site Maubeugeois, « Sculfort a toujours fabriqué des machines spécialisées, on continue à le faire, à exploiter ce savoir-faire dans le domaine de l’usinage et de profilage de roues de trains, de tramways… ». Nous  fabriquons des machines spécifiques qui partent ensuite sur les sites de maintenance dans le monde entier, confirme le responsable du site. Seules 10 usines au monde sont en capacité d’offrir ce service.
Un procès, une exigence
Avec le temps,  les roues d’un train se déforment et ne sont plus parfaitement rondes. Techniquement, un plat se forme, ce qui pose des problèmes de vibrations et d’adhérence de la roue sur le rail. Avant pour remédier au problème, il fallait démonter les essieux afin de profiler les roues et leur rendre leurs formes initiales. Cette technique augmentait les risques pour les trains dus au montage et au démontage.
Aujourd’hui, grâce aux machines de Sculfort, la maintenance peut s’effectuer directement sur les roues sans avoir à démonter les essieux. L’entreprise Sambrienne fabrique ces machines, appelées « tours en fosses ». Elle achète les pièces en Europe, les assemble et adapte la technologie afin de livrer des machines à la demande. La machine est ensuite testée et vérifiée avec le client qui se déplace pour la voir fonctionner.
Un savoir-faire qui s’exporte dans le monde entier
« Nous voyons beaucoup de monde dans nos ateliers, car les clients viennent à Maubeuge réceptionner leur machine, argumente Anthony Leroy. Une fois réceptionnées, les machines sont exportées pour y être installées sur site. Montage, formation et maintenance sont pris en charge par l’entreprise. Shanghai en est déjà à sa 4è commande, principalement pour la maintenance de son métro, et la ville de New Dehli en Inde n’est pas en reste. Une cellule recherche et développement permet de concevoir les machines et les adapter à la demande du client et à l’environnement dans lequel elles évolueront. L’entreprise s’appuie sur une dizaine de collaborateurs : techniciens et ingénieurs.
