OUR VALUES SINCE 2002
’80s
THE BEGINNING
In the 80s, Gianpiero Re faced the challenge of overheating brakes, which brought the loss of tension consistency in customers’ applications.
Dr. Re had a simple yet revolutionary idea: integrating an axial fan to cool the brakes.
That spark led to the creation of the CX250 pneumatic brake, which soon became the reference brake in the converting industry, and the world’s most copied brake.
