Italian Designer and Manufacturer of Machines and Systems for Tyre Production Installs Sesotec Metal Detectors

Tunnel metal detectors and plate-type metal detectors for large Farm and OTR tyre machinery

Schoenberg, April 2016

Marangoni Meccanica S.p.A, located in the Italian town Rovereto near Trento, is a

globally leading company in the development and production of tyre machinery both for

the production of new tyres (with the Marangoni Tyre Machinery brand) and retread

tyres (TRM brand). Machines for the production of large and extra-large radial tyres, socalled

OTR (Off The Road) tyres, are a specialty of Marangoni Meccanica S.p.A. Such

extra-large tyres are needed for agricultural vehicles, earth-moving machines, and

dump trucks.

In the course of the last ten years Marangoni Meccanica S.p.A has revolutionised the

engineering approach for large Farm and OTR tyre machinery and has built production

lines that are perfectly matched to customer demands. Marangoni Meccanica S.p.A

very often installs Sesotec tunnel metal detectors of type GLS and plate-type metal

detectors of type ELS in its production lines, which, at tyre producers’ sites, are running

with high capacity utilisation and a high level of automation.

Marangoni Meccanica S.p.A installs these metal detectors in optimal size above or

below the feed conveyor belts. With state-of-the-art detection technology Sesotec metal

detectors provide maximum scanning sensitivity for all types of metals, both ferrous

metals and stainless steel or non-ferrous metals such as aluminium, copper or brass –

no matter whether magnetic or non-magnetic, coated, painted, loose, or enclosed in the

material. For tyre producers who operate a production line made by Marangoni

Meccanica S.p.A with integrated Sesotec metal detectors, machine downtimes or

damage cases that often involve high repair costs and reduced productivity, are reliably

excluded.

Edoardo Salaorni (Marangoni Meccanica’s Commercial Director) emphasises the importance of

Sesotec metal detectors: "Marangoni Meccanica S.p.A wants to provide its customers with

production lines that grant optimal running times and allow the production of highest quality

tyres. Metal detectors made by Sesotec are an important component for us and help us

guarantee that our tyre production lines are among the best of the world."
