Danobat systems S.Coop, formerly called D+S systems, It has been chosen by the Guipuzcoa fagor ederlan firm for the design, manufacture and implementation of a flexible cell for machining of clutch crankcase and crankcase of mechanisms of Automobile gearboxes.

Both companies, belonging to Mondragón cooperative corporation, have common clients and strategies coordinated from the own M.C.C. and the achievement of this request is the result

Installation, delivered by Danobat systems form "turnkey", is composed by a high speed machining centre model DS500, a washing machine, a machine control of leakage and peripheral elements of transport necessary for the proper functioning of the cell. Danobat system engineering is capable of dealing with projects such as the talked about which requires the integration of manufacturing own and alien technology. Installation must be operational at the Fagor Ederlan factory in mid-2006, to reach in a short period of boot the Cadence of 30,000 pieces per year.

The world of the automotive industry demands today to its suppliers an inescapable commitment to the quality and quantity delivered components, but also the price paid for it is becoming increasingly tighter. For this reason, both Fagor Ederlan in the part concerning the process of cast aluminum, as Danobat systems with regard to the settlement of machining, have because of working side by side to design a solution under the requirement of the minimum sufficient in which investment and exploitation referred to in, but obviously by ensuring the quality and productivity. Another factor of success in this project, as mentioned above, has been the coincidence of the strategies of both cooperative enterprises, in the sense of specialize in offering complete solutions to the automotive market to produce complex partssuch as the gearbox casings or other parts of chassis and engine of automobile or industrial vehicle. Both managers are convinced that this project will serve to demonstrate to the automotive sector to the tandem formed by both is able to offer competitive solutions for this type of components, even at higher productive rates.
