Robofloor from Nuova Era wins orders in Iran and Egypt

Nuova Era, a System Group member company based in Casalgrande (RE), has won major new orders to supply four Robofloor machines to the ceramic manufacturer Aras Tile in Iran (already at the assembly stage) and two Buffer version Robofloor machines to the Egyptian group Horizon (to be installed by the end of November).  

The installation of Robofloor from Nuova Era at Aras Tile has revolutionised the production department. The machines operate with fired material and provide an extremely effective solution to the need to store products on days when the sorting department is not operating. Layers of tiles are moved by means of a suction table, with the aid of two electric fans to create the vacuum. In the loading stage, the layer of tiles is picked up by the roller conveyor and deposited on the pallet for unloading. The aim is to separate the production cycle between the kilns and sorting lines with a daily output of 15,000 square metres of single fired floor and wall tiles (sizes 30x30 cm to 60x60 cm). The supply package includes the system for transport and interconnection between machines.

In the factory operated by the Egyptian company Horizon, the Robofloor Buffer units were installed at the kiln exit with a pallet loading/unloading function. The system stores the tiles (loading) when the sorting line stops and feeds them to the sorting line (unloading) when it starts up again. The two kilns with which the Robofloor units are connected have a high level of productivity: 12,000 sq.m/day of monoporosa floor tiles in sizes from 25x35 cm to 40x40 cm and 12,000 sq.m/day of monoporosa wall tiles in sizes from 25x35 cm to 40x60 cm.
