After Sun Lot and Nabel, a third Chinese producer - Guangdong Gold Medal Ceramics Co. of Foshan - will begin producing large ceramic panels using System technology.
First launched two years ago, the high-speed dry squaring machine from Ancora has established itself in Italy and in the main foreign markets in Europe, America and Asia.
The Italian company based in Maranello has launched a new series of investments that will culminate in early 2017 with the doubling of large-format panel and slab production and the creation of a processing centre.
On show at Tecnargilla 2016, LAMGEA is System new plant engineering project that grants the greatest flexibility in the production of ceramic tile sizes from the “minimum size” 60x60 to a maximum of 160x480 cm.
The order comes as the Sacmi Group expands its range of solutions for large-size tile and panel finishing, ensuring flexibility, automation and total quality control.
The ICF & Welko dryer and kiln installed as part of the line supplied by System Lamina help to produce perfectly flat panels while cutting energy consumption.
CMF.XLT, the new CMF Technology brand specialising in plant solutions for large-size tiles, offers a wide range of solutions for the production, handling and finishing of large-size tiles and panels.
The clays extracted at the 11 quarries owned by UMG Holding have the characteristics needed to produce high-strength raw bodies suitable for the production of large-format ceramic tiles.
Due to their perfect flatness, extremely low weight and excellent physical and mechanical properties, Laminam largesize ceramic panels are widely used in architecture and interior design.
I.C.F. & Welko has developed an innovative solution with controlled cooling capable of eliminating surface and internal stresses, thereby guaranteeing maximum workability of the panels.
