R&D

To offer innovative solutions to our customers through research and development of next-generation technologies, we aim to develop high-performance products that meet sector-specific customer expectations at the highest level at the R&D facility that will form part of our new TEKNOSAB investment.

In line with this vision we place R&D activities and our culture of innovation at the centre of our development and competition strategies.

Technological equipment in the R&D Centre

  • CMM 3D coordinate measuring machine (CNC)
  • Tensile testing machine
  • Spectrometer
  • Optical measuring device
  • Annealing furnace — 15–600°C for heat-treatment trials
  • Benchtop hardness tester (HB)
  • Bakelite mounting press — sample preparation for microstructure
  • Microscope — for microstructure examination
  • Fully automatic grinding and polishing machine

In our R&D Centre we carry out chemical, mechanical and microstructural analyses on aluminium billets and profiles with a strong infrastructure and a specialist team.
