QUALITY CONTROL

We have two climate-controlled metrology rooms in which manufactured components undergo dimensional tests, using advanced equipment and instruments including:

  • Profile projector
  • Three-dimensional test machine
  • Radius profilometer
  • Roughness meter
  • Shape meter
  • Microscopes
  • Dial gauges
  • Micro meters
  • Bore gauges, 2 and 3 decimal places

All our machines are tested with the customer in attendance so that smooth and correct operation can be verified at first hand. Total reliability of the after-sales service is assured since the technicians who assemble the machine are the same technicians who will oversee commissioning on site.

We also provide basic training about the use of the system.

DESIGN & TEST ROOM

We can count on a highly skilled in-house design team who will conduct feasibility studies on new projects at your specific request and ensuring that production lines are adapted to individual needs and preferences.

We offer also the use of a test room, on an ad hoc basis, where you will be able to carry out feasibility studies on new products, organize pre-production sample runs and conduct application trials.

The test room is equipped with:

  • Pneumatic presses for drawing tests on aluminium
  • Laboratory machine for beading tests on aluminium caps
  • Semi-automatic capping machine for aluminium caps
  • Digital torque meter for measuring force required to open aluminium caps
  • Laboratory slitting machine for tests on plastic closures
  • Digital torque meter for measuring force required to open plastic closures
  • Equipment for testing the force required to break tamper-evident seals on plastic closure

PRODUCTION

Our entire production line is computerized, from planning to management and processes control.

+80% key components and structural assemblies (including machine units, dies, etc.) are produced in-house and countermarked with an identification number so that customers will have no difficulty in ordering replacement parts.

We utilize machine tools and equipment of the latest generation, including:

  • Ultra-high quality and precision
  • 3- 4- and 5-simultaneous axis machining centres
  • 2- 4- and 5-simultaneous axis CNC lathes
  • CNC grinding machines for flat surfaces and for internal and external diameters
  • CNC lathe for turning hardened steels (<68 HRC)
  • Lapping machines
  • Wire EDM machining
  • Various CAD CAM software applications for programming machine tools used in both 2D and 3D machining. Software for generating flat or circumferential logos; software for generating flat or cylindrical cams
  • Heat-treating department equipped with controlled atmosphere ovens and a vacuum oven
