Villeroy&Boch has chosen the certainty that comes with Sacmi RobotCasting solutions. A leading producer of high quality bathroom furnishings, tableware and tiles since 1748, the company is now working alongside Sacmi to drive forward a technological renewal and expansion plan for its plant in Hungary.
The last few weeks have seen a complete production cell -consisting of two AVM 150 high pressure casting machines- undergo final testing. In this configuration, parallel control of tasks on the two casting machines optimizes robot workloads. Sacmi is also supplying the molds used to develop a new rimless designer WC, one of the flagship products in Villeroy&Boch’s catalogue for European markets.
With this investment the company has focused on Sacmi RobotCasting, a global best-seller that delivers high levels of automation and outstanding product quality and process repeatability. Equally important is the partnership to develop the mold and the complete modeling process, a team effort that draws on all the opportunities offered by the robotic production line.
Investment in casting is just the first step in Villeroy & Boch’s broader modernization plan for its Hungarian plant. For Sacmi, this order acknowledges its unique ability to provide state-of-the-art technology and close customer support, every step of the way from initial product concept to industrialization.
