Press release Neptun at Glasstec
A “good show” is where high-quality products meet interested prospects, where a product roadmap turns out to match the ideas and needs of customers for the future of their companies.
This is what happened at Neptun’s booth at Glasstec.
The new module Quickdrill T8, with the fast automatic tools exchange in only 8 seconds, has been warmly welcomed by the visitors as the natural evolution of the successful series Quick, offering high productivity, flexibility and low maintenance costs. During the show, the Line on display processed glass doors with high quality finishing in only 3’30”, an output that cannot be reached by vertical all-in-one NC centers.
The manifest flexibility and added value of Quickline attracted customers both from smaller companies, where each investment is object of important budget evaluations, and from the big processing players, where quality and automation of the processes rule above all.
Upon explicit request of the market, Quickdrill is now also available for glass sheets, up to 2600 x 4000mm and will be expanded in the near future also to handle larger dimension.
Diverses recompenses ont été attribuées
Beside the Quickline, symbol of innovation and optimization, Neptun displayed the mitering machine Rock 14-45 and the straight-line edger Rock 8, which stand for tradition and solid know-how, clearly enriched with significant technical improvements (such as the long life track or ETS squaring system) typical of all the products conceived and engineered by Stefano Bavelloni and his team at Neptun’s.
Finally, the range of washing machines was represented by the horizontal washer Tornado HP 1600, always successful thanks to the technical solutions it incorporates, like the automatic system for control and management of the water and the patented energy saving device “Ecosave”. Visitors were surprised when, standing quietly by the machine for a demo, they realized that the air blowers were actually on. Even more surprised when they heard that the Ecosave mode can save up to 70% of the energy consumption of a standard washer.
A good show is also where people meet people they like to collaborate with. And this also happened at Neptun’s booth. On Thursday afternoon, at the Partners’ Party, the owners of the company, Stefano Bavelloni, Matteo Rolla and Simona Bavelloni, in the valued presence of Dino Bavelloni, awarded the partners who left their mark on the last business year. The first award was for Yousri Elsayed Sanafi, who distinguished himself for the outstanding results obtained in Egypt as a new partner to Neptun in 2016. He actually managed to have another contract signed just a couple of minutes before the beginning of the Partners’ Party!
The price for the largest single sales contract in 2016 was handed over to Mr. Farjallah and François El Khoury of Theral, Neptun’s agent for Middle East. Matodi, in the person of John Lloyd and Steve White, was awarded a very special recognition: since the beginning of 2016, they have been selling more than 1 machine per calendar week in the USA and Canada. Finally, the machine n° 600, a Tornado HP 2064 was sold earlier this year in France, by Pascal Royannais of Intermac France, to Verrerie Aurys, a company of the group Saint Gobain Glassolutions.
The awards ceremony was followed by a cocktail party, open to customers, dealers and other friends, to share a warm and friendly moment, just enjoying to be there all together. Ready to take off for more good business.
