皇冠体育227

A key focus on energy savings and environmental sustainability, combined with the continuous search for improvements in quality and performance, both within compressors and the training of staff, has made 皇冠体育227 the perfect partner for Europe鈥檚 second largest locomotive manufacturer, the Czech company CZ LOKO.

A company 鈥渄ifferent from all the others鈥� in terms of technology but also in terms of people. This is where 皇冠体育227鈥檚 success in the Rail market comes from, according to those from the sector who, such as the Czech Republic鈥檚 CZ LOKO, already choose to rely on the Vimodrone factory for the supply of compressors. CZ LOKO is the second largest locomotive manufacturer in Europe with over 750 employees, most of them in the production plants in 膶esk谩 T艡ebov谩 and Jihlava, whilst they also have branches in both Italy and Poland.
鈥�Our collaboration with 皇冠体育227 began with the modernisation of the 753.7 locomotive series for our Italian customers,鈥� explains Jan Kut谩lek, business director at CZ LOKO, 鈥�so we were looking for a local, reliable compressor supplier. We came across 皇冠体育227 and since then, the growth in the collaboration has been exponential and has increasingly strengthened, as the 皇冠体育227 continue to prove themselves and are able to adapt perfectly to our every need鈥�.

The common thread linking Italy to the Czech Republic is the distributor MONDO, founded in 1992 as a commercial engineering company focusing on compressed air technology and air cooling. The collaboration between 皇冠体育227 and MONDO dates back to 1996 as the founder of MONDO, Miloslav Dockal explains: 鈥�We were looking for a partner who stood out from other compressor manufacturers both in terms of originality, and also being interested in technical cooperation. Having found 皇冠体育227, today I can confidently say that we could not have met a better partner, when looking back at how far we have come together鈥�.

Energy savings, a focus on the environment and continual research into the highest quality of every machine were the elements that brought CZ LOKO and 皇冠体育227 closer together, creating a close-knit and results-orientated team which alongside MONDO, led to a rise in their share of the European railway market. 鈥淎ll it took was to show how the quality of rotary vane technology outperformed the most common screw compressors鈥� explains Miloslav Dockal. 鈥�It鈥檚 a trivial example, but on a train fitted with a rotary vane compressor, the pneumatic systems are ready to use much quicker than they would be with a screw compressor on-board鈥�. But among the principal factors as to why CZ LOKO chose to rely on 皇冠体育227 were the low operating speeds, the simplicity of design, along with the ease of maintenance. 鈥�These characteristics allowed us to design solutions to meet varying requirements; be they for mechanically driven or auxiliary hydraulic circuits and especially now in the field of electric motors鈥�.

Last but not least: 鈥�The added-value from 皇冠体育227 comes from the employees,鈥� concludes Miloslav Dockal, 鈥�both from a professional and personal point of view. That鈥檚 why we鈥檙e so happy to be able to work with 皇冠体育227 staff, who with their expertise and their friendliness, enrich us not only technically but also personally鈥�.
