This investment consolidates Cerbras’ technological switch towards glazed/polished porcelain tiles made with spray-dried powder. The new line includes the largest Sacmi kiln ever installed in Brazil.
The second complete Continua+ line supplied by Sacmi will be started up in May at the Incepa plant and will manufacture the new 160x160 cm and 160x320 cm SuperSize formats with 7 mm thickness.
The milestone was reached thanks to an increase in the number of moulds produced using the innovative tooling process, which for the first time has overtaken the traditional casting system.
Sacmi drying and firing technology has been chosen by the Spanish company for its new large-format production plant in Castellón. This includes the new FMA Maestro kiln and the 7-level dryer.
The sanitaryware multinational has installed a second glazing robot at its Ahmedabad facility, the latest addition to the many projects it has carried out together with Sacmi around the world.
In order to significantly boost productivity, the Turkish group Hayal has purchased the largest and most powerful ceramic mills and spray dryers ever launched onto the market, supplied by Sacmi.
RobotClean is Sacmi’s new technology for safely performing all sanitaryware white finishing operations which are currently carried out manually and place the operator at risk of contact with hazardous substances such as respirable crystalline silica dust.
Digitalization and sustainability are the two key drivers that merge with Sacmi’s wider plant engineering logic. The goal: to maximize productivity and versatility as part of a new manufacturing approach that focuses on environmentally and socially sustainable production, but without compromising on quality or aesthetics.
With this latest project, the Romanian company Cemacon will enter the extruded wall lining/trim market, which is increasingly the center of attention on account of outstanding aesthetics, practicality and sustainability.
The new facility, successfully started up by SAMCA in Hammanskraal, South Africa, adopts a revolutionary technological approach while using locally sourced raw materials.
The company’s Fiorano facility has been completely revamped in collaboration with Sacmi and has an annual production capacity of around 12 million square metres.
