Real engineering challenges. Clearly documented solutions.

This page presents verified ALUFORMIX project stories covering new lines, individual equipment, downstream systems, automation and modernization. Each case study explains the customer’s challenge, the supplied scope, technical approach, execution and approved outcome.

Line layout & process flow

How a complete line arranges on the floor

Start with the general arrangement, then open the process flow to walk the twenty-one steps machine by machine.
