DAVI DELIVERS THE LARGEST PLATE ROLL IN COST RICA

  The continuous worldwide expansion of the DAVI organisation has made it possible for us to partner with more customers in South America.  Recently these new partnerships resulted in the sale of another 4-roll DAVI machine in Costa Rica.  This machine can roll 10 ft wide and 3-7/8” in thick steel plates and was sold to the largest hydroelectric company in the country. The Central and South American region is continuing their economic growth and has an ever increasing need for power.  The majority of this increased power demand will come from new hydroelectric resources.  These installations utilise a substantial amount of steel pipe made from high resistance, thick walled, steel.

 

“DAVI’s 4-roll machine” – as described by Orazio Davi, President “has been chosen by this prestigious customer also due to the fact that our machine requires only a small amount of regular maintenance, it does not even need greasing, thanks to the patented technology of the scale free, self-lubricating planetary guides, compared to the previous generation technology plate rolls still use linear friction guides.”

 

The choice to procure the DAVI plate roll was in part made due to DAVI’s ability to offer a full turnkey system.  The machine has been installed by DAVI technical personnel who took care of the machine assembly, installation, runoff, pre-programming and training of the customer’s operators in operating a modern plate rolling machine and the techniques available with the DAVI machine.
