Unimec Crafts a One-of-a-Kind Application for a Nuclear Power Plant in the US

Recently Unimec North America Inc. has played a key role in a very ambitious and demanding project in the nuclear sector.

Unimec’s US branch has been thriving since its inception in the North American market; thanks to the superb quality of its made in Italy mechanical components, Unimec’s products have been immediately recognized as the finest in the market by the most discerning and demanding users.

The Unimec NJ facility has been extremely active and involved in numerous challenging applications in a variety of critical fields; just recently, Unimec has developed a custom reducer from the 54 series to be used in the trap-door opening and closing mechanism of a heat exchanger in a US nuclear power plant.

The nuclear field is a particular arena requiring extreme safety and reliability standards, as well as a fully comprehensive level of traceability and certification where only the top tier manufacturers can be considered.

“Although the application was not particularly challenging from a purely mechanical standpoint “– says Alessandro Bronzini, Managing Director of Unimec North America – it was imperative to meet the specific quality and safety criteria of the nuclear field. In fact, thanks to our rigorous quality standards, the 100% in-house control of the manufacturing process and the use of the very finest materials, Unimec emerged as the only manufacturer in the world capable of exceeding the stringent levels of certification demanded by the nuclear engineers involved in the project”.

This important nuclear application is another achievement in Unimec’s long list of success stories and proves that utmost dedication to total quality and constant improvement is the best winning strategy, not only for Unimec but also, and most importantly, for our Customers.
