Major investments in facilities and products
A leading manufacturer of gearboxes for extruder drive, Zambello Riduttori has just made substantial investments in two production sites (Magnago, near Milan, and Lendinara, near Rovigo, Italy) in order to achieve very important objectives so as to consolidate its leadership worldwide. Both production sites have been expanded, with an increase of around 65% of the total covered surface, which now take up nearly 20,000 square meters of the overall 100,000 square meter area.
In order to considerably increase production capacity and to further shorten delivery time, new CNC machinery, ensuring high precision and productivity, as well as other super efficient equipment, such as the new massive automatic warehouse system that will revolutionise order processing for customers located all over the world, have been installed at the sites.
Over the last few years, remarkable results in terms of performance have been achieved, with the introduction of new products such as the gearboxes for twin screw extruders (both counter-rotating and corotating), now available also with torque density of the highest level.
Amongst the new products in the range are also the gearboxes for conical twin screw extruders. But the activity to widen the range, including additional sizes, is still going on.
