During the 1980s the steel plants’ production needed the integration of elements such as additives and inoculants to improve the metal treatment process.

After a little while iron foundries themselves, producing nodular iron castings, identified the same necessity for ladle treatment of cast iron.

The state of the art regarding the ladle treatment methods though has developed over the years from the Sandwich ladle treatment method to the Tundish ladle treatment method and finally to the Cored wire treatment method.

A brand new 5-axis milling center of highest level with a fixed bench structure and sliding table, guarantees performance optimization as: stiffness, sensitivity, precision, reliability, speed and consistency of tool behavior (independent from temperature variation and stress generated during the process of removal).

The milling-boring department ensures productivity and precision by maximizing the machining performance from smaller to bigger parts. Technological innovations allow to optimize every single process as: roughing, finishing on cast iron, steel and alloys. The system for the automatic head changing further enables great flexibility and automation.
