Capstans and Windlasses
In 2011 and early 2012 we designed and delivered a number of capstans and windlasses for the offshore and mining sectors, including two 9t capstans in Morocco, various capstans for the San Finx mine in Spain, and the windlass and capstan of the Scorpene submarine in India.
We are able to manufacture capstans capable of pulling from 5t up to 60t.
Quality assurance
Hidrofersa has high-quality management systems in place, which are applied rigorously in all processes to achieve not only the highest quality products, but also to deliver maximum satisfaction to our customers.
In line with our commitment to constant improvement we carry out internal fortnightly audits. We also develop our products with the environment in mind, and strictly adhere to demanding certifications such as ISO 9001: 2008, Bureau Veritas and Lloyd’s Register.
Hidrofersa operates 3D product verification, thus assuring quality results to its clients.
R&D, training and marine equipment upgrades
Research and development, training and upgrading has been a core value of Hidrofersa since the beginning, keeping us at the forefront of a constantly developing market. This has provided us with a wide range of experience and solutions to meet our customers’ needs, no matter how unique. We are able to resolve obstacles quickly and efficiently, drawing on our wealth of knowledge about the industry.
Our constant training and continuously updated range of equipment guarantee a rapid response to the projects we carry out, and makes sure that we are also ready to achieve our objectives in the future. At Hidrofersa we are able to undertake all your projects regardless of their complexity.
Remote machinery control
In the last two years we have stepped up our already sizeable investment in research and development, and are now able to install high-tech features such as microprocessors and WiFi in all kinds of equipment. This enables you to control and check your machinery’s variables, capacity and performance remotely from any location.
Our research and development team are now finding ways to improve our cementation ovens in our plants in Spain. The Titere and Corona projects are on course to be completed in July 2012.
