Revigres boosts large tile output with Sacmi
A leading producer of technical and glazed porcelain tiles, Portuguese company Revigres has further increased its large-format output capacity by installing a new production line designed by Sacmi. The heart of the system consists of a PH 7500, which is ideal for large sizes and is equipped with an array of technological innovations to guarantee uniform pressing force distribution, even on the largest models.
Combining reliability, ruggedness and flexibility, the PH 7500 offers Revigres new potential for expanding its product range.
While initially equipped with 3-cavity SMS upper forming dies suitable for the production of 600x600 mm tiles, the press is also designed to produce larger sizes such as 600x1200 mm, 800x800 mm and 900x900 mm.
The line supplied by Sacmi also includes an automatic EVA 984 vertical dryer, part of a new series that has already won worldwide acclaim for its outstanding technology, low energy consumption, versatility, user-friendliness and ease of maintenance.
The distinctive feature of this new series of dryers is its capacity to reduce tile moisture content to very low levels, thus maximising both unfired strength and temperature uniformity.
