HBW: Efficiency and Sustainability
The installation of the new HBW billet welding system at the Osoppo rebars rolling mill marks a turning point in product quality, reliability, and safety, all with reduced environmental impact. The machine, based on a new design concept, is set to revolutionise the production cycle. The investment aims to guarantee a significant boost in terms of efficient production through significant improvements that directly positively impact operating costs and sustainability.
Design that reduces operating costs
The innovative design of the HBW welding machine has been developed to maximise accessibility, making routine and non-routine maintenance operations significantly easier and safer for operators. This translates into a drastic reduction in downtime due to breakdowns or cleaning, ensuring smoother production. In addition, the machine uses less cooling water thanks to improved containment/conveyance, and although energy consumption for welding has remained unchanged from the previous version, the overall process is efficient.
Better Product, Lower Impact
La saldatrice HBW rappresenta per il Gruppo Pittini un salto di qualità. Il suo design migliora l’accessibilità e la manutenzione, aumentando la sicurezza per gli operatori e riducendo i tempi di fermo, per una produzione più efficiente. Minore uso di acqua di raffreddamento e ottimizzazione del ciclo garantiscono una maggiore qualità del prodotto finale con un minore impatto ambientale. Questo investimento strategico coniuga tecnologia, sostenibilità e redditività operativa.
