A competitor´s best compliment

LeoBauma 2004 is behind us. For us, the event was a great success. We met a tremendous amount of customers, both old and new, and our stand attracted much attention. For this we thank you, dear readers.

Walking through the exhibition, I became nostalgic. We have come far since Spiroll generated the Extruder-technology in the sixties. Dycore continued development and soon we had oval hollows and thicker slabs. Elematic acquired Dycore in 1988 and refined the technology further. The result was groundbreaking - machines that no longer vibrated to achieve the required gauge, but used the shear compaction method. The same basic technique still makes our machines efficient and reliable. And unique.



Elematic Fixed Sawing Concept

ElematicHave your plant turning out more whilst improving the working environment – sensationally possible with Elematic!

This may just be the most remarkable innovation in decades in prestressed concrete production. The concept is actually very simple: Having cast a full bed with your extruder or slipformer, only a minimum of cuts is made on the bed. The long pieces are then lifted up onto a conveyor and transported to a fixed sawing station, where the rest of the cutting is done. All the splashing of slurry, which turns into health-hazardous dust when dry, all human contact with dangerous moving machines, and next to all noise from sawing, is eliminated.



Recycling

Concrete is the most frequently used material on earth, after water. It is nontoxic, environmentally safe and composed of natural materials. Concrete does not molder, rust, or burn. And it can be recycled. Consolis's factories cast more than 1 million m³ of concrete annually, making them the largest producer of precast concrete products in Europe. Elematic, as part of the Consolis Group, is the leading one-stop-supplier of products and technology for the precast concrete industry. Being a global leader is a responsible position, and for Consolis and Elematic this means leading the way also in eco-friendly thinking.
