Duravit India purchases second Sacmi RobotGlaze cell

The sanitaryware multinational has installed a second glazing robot at its Ahmedabad facility, the latest addition to the many projects it has carried out together with Sacmi around the world.

Four years after adopting the first RobotGlaze unit which marked the conversion of the Ahmedabad plant to Sacmi’s robotized glazing technology, Duravit India has completed its investment with the installation of a second cell.

The solution consists of a 4-position carousel served by a Sacmi-Gaiotto GA 2000 robot. As with the previous supply, this machine has a simple and reliable configuration which further improves the level of automation at the German multinational’s Ahmedabad factory.

In addition to the perfect quality and repeatability of glaze application, RobotGlaze also facilitates circularity of the production process thanks to spraying optimisation and the filter systems which allow for complete recovery of overspray.

This latest investment at the Indian production plant marks a new milestone in the global partnership between Duravit and Sacmi involving all the German group’s main factories in Europe, Asia and North Africa.
