Stablished in Bologna (Italy), our company ANDERLINI MECCANICA SRL, has been working since 1954 developing our skills and expertise in mechanical subcontracting, manufacturing tubes, sheet metal stamping and CNC turning. We are present in the metal market for tubular motors, automotive and motorcycle sectors .
We have developed preNANOCOAT: a novel metal tubes powder coating system with an innovative nano-technology pre-treatment, a self-designed mechanical gripping system and an IR/UV curing station, which will reduce our energy consumption in 50% and will be 6 times faster. This will allow us to increase our production volume and our turnover in about 100% in a five year period.
In order to confirm the feasibility of our project, we, have carried out a 4-month study focusing our efforts on 3 main areas:
Technically, we have optimized our gripping system, designed the pre-NANOCOAT plant layout, fully tested the nano-pretreatment and analysed the requirements of our customers for the coated tubes. We have also prepared a complete Execution Plan for the development of pre-NANOCOAT project, including planning, organization and risk analysis and budget.
Commercially, we have assessed the existing and new targeted markets, including our competitors, to consolidate our marketing strategy. A technology watch and patent search has been performed to ensure our Freedom-to-Operate and a patent has been registered. Finally, on the economic side, financial forecasts, based on the marketing and price policy, have been drafted to evaluate on a 5-year-projection.
