Designed and built to perfection to ensure very high efficiency and excellent performance, Zambello gearboxes are the result of the combination of craftsmanship and industrial know-how focused on automation. The extreme accuracy of the grinding processes and control of all gears, the optimised solutions in terms of lubrication and refrigeration – ensuring great savings of lubricating oil by increasing its quality, yield and duration – represent the best response to the current need for environment protection and sustainable industrial development according to the principles of the European Green Deal. Another important step towards sustainability is the new ZMS monitoring system, unveiled by Zambello at the K 2022 exhibition. Purposely created to meet the fundamental needs of the sector, the ZMS system is a major innovation in gear-

nificant increase in the level of automation at the Zambello 2 factory in Lendinara. At the new production plant, that has just been completed, the effectiveness of the automation and optimisation of production processes, although still evolving, is already clearly visible to visitors. Elio Zambello underlines:“ Our specialisation on one side, and the constant commitment we dedicate to the company on the other, have allowed us to gain the trust of multinational companies operating in the plastics and rubber sector, which indirectly guarantee us large orders by including our gearboxes in their specifications.” Proof of this is the fact that the Zambello Group is
the first Italian company to have won the award for“ best supplier of the year” that Reifenhäuser, a world reference in the extrusion sector, handed over to Zambello for the excellent quality of its gearboxes in terms of performance and reliability.

box control technology, as it makes it possible to assess the conditions of the extruder’ s mechanical transmission by monitoring some crucial parameters. Designed to reduce downtime and optimise production efficiency, the ZMS system has taken on a key role in Industry 4.0 processes. For this reason, the Zambello Group is developing new specific solutions for production plants equipped with multiple extruders, further expanding the potential of advanced monitoring concepts. Excellent performance and energy savings: Zambello gearboxes are the Italian answer to the Green Deal.
