Dalcos EXN: The Punching Machine that Redefines ESG Standards in the Industry
With Dalcos, the brand of Dallan S.p.A., a leading company in the production of sheet metal working machines, we present a fundamental aspect of the EXN coil punching machine.
This machine, starting from coils and using servo-electric actuators, meets the highest ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) standards in the market.
Let’s discover together how this advanced technology not only respects the environment but also generates significant savings for the companies that use it!
Production Phase: Energy Efficiency and Environmental Certifications
Energy Savings
Dalcos machines are produced at Dallan S.p.A. in a state-of-the-art facility in Castelfranco Veneto, equipped with a 9,000 sqm solar plant.
This plant generates over 420,000 kWh of energy annually, ensuring that production is sustainable and environmentally friendly.
Continuous improvements, such as the installation of LED lighting, have further enhanced the energy efficiency of the facility.
Additionally, a new photovoltaic system is under construction at Dallan’s fifth site, which will be operational by 2025, adding an additional 400 kWp to the company’s energy production.
Environmental Certification
Dalcos, along with Dallan S.p.A., proudly holds ISO 14001 certification, demonstrating a concrete commitment to reducing environmental impacts and continuously improving processes.
This certification places Dalcos and Dallan among the few companies in the sector with such an important recognition, highlighting the company’s constant focus on sustainable production practices.
Sustainable Logistics in Production
Local Suppliers and Eco-Friendly Transport
Most of Dalcos’ suppliers are located within a 20 km radius of the facility, significantly reducing the environmental impact of transportation.
Furthermore, logistics partners have adopted sustainable initiatives to further minimize the ecological footprint.
This short-range logistics not only reduces CO2 emissions but also ensures faster delivery times and more efficient inventory management.
Auxiliary Materials with Lower Environmental Impact
Dallan’s in-house painting plant uses water-based paints, reducing the use of harmful solvents and improving the overall sustainability of production processes.
Even the suppliers of painting services for components follow the same low-impact process, contributing to a greener and more sustainable supply chain.
Sustainable Packaging: Recyclable and Reusable Packaging
The packaging used by Dalcos is 100% recyclable and made from 91% recycled materials.
Additionally, Dallan has optimized waste separation, achieving an 85% recycling rate of company waste.
This commitment to recycling and waste reduction contributes to a lower overall environmental footprint.
Advantages of Using the EXN Machine: Efficiency and Sustainability
Reduction of Waste
Dalcos EXN machines, starting from coils, allow you to save up to 20% of raw material compared to traditional punching machines.
This is possible due to the complete use of material, eliminating typical sheet processing waste.
The sheet metal is unwound from the coil, punched, and cut by the transverse shear, making the parts immediately available without complex nesting or micro-joints.
Space Optimization
The coils used by EXN machines are compact, require less storage space, and are easier to handle, reducing the risk of material damage.
This space optimization allows companies to reduce warehouse costs and improve overall operational efficiency.
Reduction of Energy and Labor
EXN punching machines save 70% of energy and 75% of labor compared to traditional technologies, offering unparalleled efficiency and ease of use.
These savings are due to the efficiency of servo-electric technology and the optimization of production processes.
The use of servo-electric actuators not only reduces energy consumption but also improves the precision and quality of finished products.
Refurbishment and Upgrading of Machines
Flexibility and Longevity
Dalcos EXN machines are easily refurbishable and can be upgraded with the addition of components to automate parts of the process, replace obsolete electronic parts, and update the software.
This approach not only extends the useful life of the machines but also ensures they keep pace with the latest regulations and technological innovations.
Complete Revamping
Dalcos offers the possibility of a complete revamping of the machines, bringing them back to the facility and equipping them with the necessary certifications and markings.
This unique service in the industry allows customers to keep their equipment up-to-date and operational for many years, reducing the need for new purchases and minimizing the environmental impact associated with the production of new machines.
Dalcos, with its EXN punching machine, not only meets the highest ESG standards but also offers significant economic benefits to its customers.
The combination of energy efficiency, waste reduction, and space optimization makes the EXN an ideal choice for OEM companies seeking sustainable, cost-effective, and innovative solutions for sheet metal processing.
