Pistons: components for track adjusters

PRODUCTION AREAS

Electric upsetting and forging
Mechanical machining
Heat-treatment

APPLICATIONS


Agricultural vehicles


Earth moving equipment

FUNCTION AND CRITICALITY

These components are being used for the adjustment of track link chains. They are very critical items since their breaking may cause the locking of the vehicle they are mounted on and they also represent an important safety for the vehicle itself.

MARKET / CUSTOMERS

Major producers like Sogefi Rejna.

COMMENTS

The electric-upsetting and forging process grants a limited stock and a continuous fiber flow.
The advantage offered by Sapes is represented by the fact that we can supply a highly integrated production cycle which – starting from a raw bar – can provide a completely finished component ready to be assembled into the vehicle.
