Success Stories: Vasco

Vasco is a Belgian manufacturer specialised in design radiators of the highest quality.  Vasco has a policy of continuous investment in machine technology.  For the finishing of welds which was still realised by manual labour. Vasco was looking for a solutions that was economical and meets their high quality standard.  Optidrive was capable of delivering this solutions thanks to its unique force control technology.

"We were very glad to use their testing facilities in order to see what polishing quality we could get with a robotic system. Doing so we eliminated all risks before the actual investment. Thanks to the experience and the service of the Optidrive team, we reached an excellent polishing result. We know by our own experience that this is not so easy." - Bart Lourdaux, Head of engineering.
