SAVER Group - PRODUCTION EQUIPMENTS

The SAVER Group is equipped with the best modern machines and technologies for the different product lines.

In particular for filament wound tubes is able to satisfy standard requests from internal diameter 6 mm through 1000 mm and lengths up to 8.000 mm in an solid piece.
However, also solutions exceeding above mentioned dimensions (for example length higher than 8.000 mm) can be achieved with a customized approach with each single customer.

Main production equipment of SAVER S.p.A. is here below listed:

Multi-mandrel winding machines
Around 35.000 mandrels in order to cover as many diameters as possible
Several resin systems preparation equipment and vacuum impregnations systems
Several ovens for polymerization of composite materials
Several sandblasting machines and bonding systems
Extractors
Automatic machines and cutting systems
Several parallel and CNC lathes
Nr 6 clamping machines for silicon injection, including the biggest clamping machine in UE for liquid silicon injection
Several moulds for silicon sheds profile for composite insulators (cylindrical, conical, tapered)
Varnishing robots and chambers

Main production equipment of SAVER Alumen S.r.l. are referred to production of aluminium castings:

Ovens (gas powered)
Ovens (electricity powered)
Die gravity castings machines
Cutting machines
Machining equipment
Sandblasting machines
Thermal Treatment systems

SAVER Alumen S.r.l is equipped with different tools to control the aluminium casting process (temperature, density etc.…) and quality of the castings (X-rays machines). In addition, the company is equipped with laboratory control tools (mass spectrometers, tensile test machines etc.…) in order to control the quality of the alloy and of the castings.

TESTING AND CONTROL EQUIPMENT

The most important testing and control equipment of SAVER S.p.A. is here below indicated:

Equipment for mechanical testing:

Bending test equipment
Pressure and tightness test equipment with Helium gas and mass spectrometer device
Tensile and compressive test machines
Universal mechanical testing machine with indication of loads on digital display
Explosion resistant chamber for porcelain bushings pressure tests
Dilo system for vacuum and SF6 treatments
Tightness measuring systems by WIKA
etc.…

Equipment for electrical testing:

High Voltage Test Laboratory AC 750 kV for Partial Discharges detection with background noise 0,2-0,4 pC constantly calibrated and audited by the main OEMs and Utilities
Several equipment for electrical tests in compliance with international standards
Megger for resistivity tests
etc.…

Equipment for monitoring and control:

SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) System for traceability and process monitoring of critical parameters of production. It’s a real time alerting and monitoring remote system, which traces and measures whichever value of the process, their trending, historical values and deviations, if any. Information is automatically and safely stored and can be reported, listed or recalled in any time.

Dimensional measuring equipment:

3D Coordinate CMM machine (accuracy ≤ 6μm) used in acceptance inspections and for type/samples tests of composite insulators
Digital calibers and micrometers for fine measuring of 1/100 mm.
Optical measurement devices for lengths with the possibility to obtain derivative sizes.
Measuring instruments to determine inner diameters with removable sensors
Digital altimeter for measurements up to 900 mm.
