Sama Maschinenbau invests over 1.2 million Euros

Sama Maschinenbau, the world-beating Sacmi Group company that specialises in the design of machines and complete plants for the tableware industry, recently invested a staggering 1.2 million Euros in an array of improvement projects. Thanks to this investment - which focussed on the Weißenstadt plant, in Fichtelgebirge, western Baviera - Sama has successfully made improvements to plant logistics and energy efficiency by renewing and modernising its output equipment. For example, an excellent new 5-axis milling machine was recently installed in the mould construction department.

 

Another key focus of investment was the actual building: the new roof - which connects the two main factory sheds - was inaugurated at the end of the summer, with the opening ceremony being attended by key figures from the parent company: the Group CEO, Paolo Mongardi, Group Managing Director, Pietro Cassani, the Sanitaryware and Tableware Division Manager, Daniele Coralli and the CFO of Sama, Emanuele Mazzini. In implementing this investment is should also be noted that Sama received, for the first time since its founding in 1996, a public contribution from the Wunsiedel Development Authority.
