Salico Group of companies with locations in Italy, Spain, UK and the USA specializes in downstream finishing processes after rolling of flat metal strip for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Different to other suppliers in this field, Salico in-house technology, know-how and references cover the complete range of processes: tension leveling, surface cleaning and treatment, slitting, cutting to length, trapezoidal cutting and packaging. Due to the continuous technological advance that makes Salico’s trajectory, important projects are being carried out all over the world which has led us to position ourselves at the forefront of companies in finishing lines. Last year the company celebrated its 40th anniversary. As for Tension leveling, Salico lines can handle strip thickness from 0.08 up to 6.5mm, with strip width up to 2.500mm. All-electric or hybrid drive configurations are available. The leveler most usual configuration is with two sets of elongation clusters and double leveling station, all in cassette arrangement for easy maintenance. For surface cleaning various technical solutions are available depending upon the requested efficiency. Salico cleaner portfolio includes soft or strong alkali acidic, electrolytic, solvent or high pressure hot water technologies. Line speeds up to 600m/min have been achieved with the Salico cleaning lines. For slitting applications, Salico provides the high-precision slitter heads, including automatic high pressure axial clamping of the tools, different back-tension devices: simple felt pads, rolls brindles, vacuum rolls eddy currents and belts brindles. Slitting lines are produced up to strip of 15mm thick and speed of 800m/min. Within cut to length lines the heavy duty levelers designed to obtain high yield values (>80%), the eccentric rotary shears, flying shears and the vacuum and magnetic stackers, which ensure quality of the sheets both in the surface and the edges while allowing for line operation at maximum speed, by vertical drop of the sheets under no inertia. Cut to length lines are produces form 0.1 up to 25mm thick strip. Our product portfolio also includes cut to length lines for trapezoidal sheets, typical for the automotive industry. At present the Salico Group of companies is composed by:
- Salico Spa in Molteno and Barzago (LC), Italy (mechanical engineering and construction);
- Salico Hispania SA in Madrid, Spain (mechanical engineering);
- KCS Herr Voss UK Ltd. in West Midlands, UK (mechanical engineering);
- Salico Automation Srl in Cremella (LC), Italy (automation);
- Salmec Automation SL in Madrid, Spain (automation);
- SES Salico, a joint venture between SES LLC and Salico Group of Companies located in Alliance, Ohio, USA, to provide the typical Salico range of products to the North American market. The joint venture profits for the Salico high level of technology in aluminium finishing lines, together with the advances engineering and manufacturing facilities of SES LLC which allows Salico Group to offer very high technological lines backed up with American engineering, construction and after sales service to the North American aluminium producers.
