Description
Wemeco specializes in lot manufacturing of metal products for industry and road infrastructure, such as hatches, manholes or steps and stairs. Under the project we will implement an original product innovation resulting from our own R&D work - wemDeck ISD hatch to be used in roads and their shoulders, and parking areas. The innovative technological solutions that were applied in this new type of the overrun hatch apply to the supporting structure and the locking system. These will allow a significant reduction of the hatch weight, its 100% tightness, increased safety of unlocking the hatch cover, and the possibility of unlocking by a user in the standing position. The new solutions have been tested in laboratories of two universities in Wrocław.
The product is targeted at European customers implementing projects in the lines of construction, road and sewage infrastructures, and untypical underground construction.
Our project covers the purchase of machines which will modernize the existing production line to enable the implementation of the new product: a laser fiber cutter and a powder coating line. We have conducted an energy audit for these machines, which shows that they will bring about a yearly reduction of electricity consumption of 0,52 GWh, which translates into lowering the plant’s energy demand by 52,04 %. CO2 emission will be reduced by 424 tons per year.
