New machine, bright new future

PS Costruzioni has recently pioneered its latest cable packaging line model, the new Double Automatic Spooling line, model PS630/15 2B – a result of PS’s commitment to material– technology based innovation and product development. This machine, which has the capability to execute the manufacturing process fully automatically, having the operator purely as a supervisory function, has been sold and installed by some of the most demanding customers throughout the world, who are already taking advantage of its engineering excellence and high level of performance. Customer feedback on this new product has already been favourable.
