Since 2023, Sacmi has developed a number of projects for electrically-heated thermal machines, such as gas-electric multichannel roller dryers, gas-electric vertical dryers, electric roller kilns and hybrid roller kilns.
Margins and equity both increased, surpassing €1 billion for the first time. Mongardi: “It was a solid year despite the complex international situation”.
The Italian ceramic sanitaryware manufacturer is continuing the modernisation of its facility in Gallese (Viterbo) with the installation of a new ALV cell for high-pressure casting of washbasins and RobotClean technology for robotic finishing of sanitaryware.
The long-established Italian ceramic tile producer has completed a plant upgrade in collaboration with Sacmi to boost productivity and maximise environmental sustainability.
The investment for a new tunnel kiln, designed to achieve an output of a million pieces per year, completes the project to expand production at the Duravit’s Chongqing plant.
Today’s interior design trends are increasingly shaping ceramic products, a transformation which has been made possible by a series of innovative solutions developed by Sacmi, including surface and body decoration, surface structuring and synchronisation of the various digital applications.
The number of moulds made using the innovative “by tooling” process continues to grow, and, for the first time, supersedes the traditional “by casting” system.
The Chongqing plant is increasingly establishing itself as one of the world’s most advanced facilities in terms of automation and Industry 4.0 production flows and internal logistics.
SACMI has introduced a new application that generates a digital identity card for products, effectively serving as a “protected designation of origin” label and offering benefits in terms of process control.
