20 21 Special profiles for agricultural machinery The Special Profiles Division of Proinvest Group has diversified its range of products. Watch how we manufacture the special profiles on our official YouTube channel! The creation of an internal research-development team within the Special Profiles Division has allowed us to continually develop the product portfolio. This division had in 2017 not less than 15 certified profiles for serial production. In 2018 we have obtained, from our costumers, the certification for a new special profile – a guide rail for linear technique, three other special profiles are in testing phase and will be certified in 2019. The development of the product portfolio will involve, from 2019, the creation of a further 13 typo dimensions of spline shafts, a special profile already certified, that has direct applicability in agricultural equipment. One of the future projects of the Special Profiles Division is to develop capabilities to produce 20 extra typo dimensions of customized profiles, based on customer requirements, with applicability in industrial automations.
