PRODUCTION

Welding Lines

We have 10 individual welding stations across our factories. On these lines are robot welding, gas welding, spot welding, butt welding, TIG welding and automatic and semi-automatic wire mesh welding machines, separated according to type of material. Materials to be welded are sheet metal, profile, wire and stainless steel.

Materials are prepared at their corresponding production line stations, then conveyed to the welding lines, where they are held in place for the welding process with the aid of apparatus and fixtures.

TIG welding is performed on 15 manual welding lines.

The Press Shop

Presses from 10 to 800 tons are available on the press lines. Parts coming from the sizing centre or laser arrive at the Press Shop ready for cutting, punching and forming.

Two types of press - known as eccentric and hydraulic – are used for cutting, folding, drawing and stamping the sheet metal, applying pressure or impact by means of the customised moulds incorporated in them. In addition, thanks to the progressive moulds, parts are completely and automatically produced without having to be sized, or touched by means of rollers, straighteners or drivers.

Punching operations are performed en masse on 6 press lines.

Laser Lines

Our laser machines are of two types: sheet metal and profile lasers. Rays produced in the resonator are transported by fibre-optic cable and delivered precisely to the processing surface; and with the help of auxiliary gases (nitrogen, air, oxygen), the cutting process is performed in direct contact with the surface to be processed.

Materials up to 10mm thick can be processed. Likewise, cutting and drilling operations on pipes and profiles of different sizes are performed on the profile laser machine.

Sheet metal and profile cutting operations from 0.5mm to 10mm are performed on 3 laser lines.

Roll Form Lines

On sheet metal forming lines, the forming process is applied via lateral, parallel or direct pressure that avoids altering the thickness or mechanical properties of the material. We have 5 Roll Form lines in our company, with the capacity to process 100,000 tons of sheet metal per year, producing heavy load uprights, C-C cross beams, diagonal braces, shelves, and back panels.

Production is carried out with the latest technology, using completely robotic and automated systems, in line with customer requests and requirements, in accordance with quality standards, at low cost, with high performance, and on the principle of fast delivery. On the Roll Form line - which has the capacity to produce 7 cross beams per minute - there are a total of 7 robots, 6 welders and 1 stacker. This line, where sheet metal of 1.20-1.50 to 2mm thickness is processed, can produce cross beams with lengths of 1200 to 4000mm.

Sheet metal of 1.50-2.00-2.50-3.00mm thickness is processed on the upright Roll Form line, which has a profile drawing capacity of 15m per minute. Uprights with heights of 1000 to 12000mm are produced on this line. The line incorporates a 100-ton mechanical press that can perform 120 strokes per minute.

Our shelf Roll Form line, which has a production capacity of 6 parts per minute, processes sheet metal of 0.80mm thickness. We produce a total of 45 different variations of shelf width and length. Since our line is fully automatic, the completely finished product is obtained after loading only raw materials.

Our rear panel Roll Form line processes sheet metal of 0,60mm to 1,20mm, and has a production capacity of 8 parts per minute. 54 different types of rear panel are produced, with variations in width, length and surface. Since the line is fully automatic, only raw materials are loaded to obtain completely finished products.

The Roll Form line where we produce diagonal braces to connect pairs of uprights has a profile drawing capacity of 17m per minute. This line, where sheet metal of between 1.50mm and 2mm is processed, produces 6 different cuts of C profile.

Mass production of requested features and dimensions is made on 5 Roll Form lines.

Powder Coating Lines

These lines enable product surfaces to be coated with electrostatically charged powder paint particles that adhere to the surface, which is then fired to between 180 and 240°C.

The 2 powder coating lines in our company are built with the latest technology and have an annual painting capacity of 10 million m2 and the ability to switch colours in 10 minutes.

Glossy, semi-gloss, matt, textured and anti-bacterial paints are applied in accordance with European standards, with more than 200 options to meet customer demands for colour.

Static powder painting is performed on 2 paint shop lines with an annual painting capacity of 10 million m2. Colour switching time is 10 minutes.

Maintenance

In our factories, we apply the maintenance-repair module of the SAP system. Maintenance planning and repair activities on machinery and on all kinds of technical equipment at the plants and on vehicles within the company, plus the recording, monitoring and reporting of the workmanship and materials used during these activities is all done through the SAP system.

This enables preventive maintenance activities. In other words, it gives us the opportunity to intervene before a machine or piece of equipment breaks down. While preventing losses of time and production, which are the most important factors in manufacturing, we have the chance to predict the occurrence of failures in the future.
