Eckelmann: BTE Automazione is new sales partner in Italy
BTE Automazione and Eckelmann entered into a strategic sales partnership in October. The Italian family business, based in Bellusco near Milan, has extensive expertise as a system integrator in the field of CNC cutting with laser, plasma and waterjet.
Together, the two companies want to create the conditions for further growth in one of the global core markets for mechanical engineering. Looking at the global production of machine tools, Italy is in fourth place with a market share of 8.3 percent and is growing solidly with increasing domestic demand.
CEO Dr. Marco Münchhof emphasizes: "We are also responding to increased inquiries from Italian machine manufacturers. Like many international machine manufacturers, they also want to use our reliable CNC solution packages, for example for cutting machines. The proven flexibility and easy customization of our solutions gives them a decisive competitive edge. Not only medium-sized companies appreciate the high quality and reliability of our customized one-stop solutions for the complete automation technology and software of their application."
BTE Automazione will advise Italian machine manufacturers locally and support them in the implementation of Eckelmann 's CNC solutions. "We have already been in close contact with the management for a year and a half," says Münchhof: "We are delighted that we have now been able to seal this successful collaboration by creating an official Italian Eckelmann agency."
"In the Italian market in particular, flexibility and dynamism are among the fundamental success factors," says Alessandro Besana, Managing Director of BTE. "Added to this is the need to be logistically and culturally rooted in the region." Thanks to its many years of customer service experience in the industrial sector, the company has a combination of highly professional service and support at the highest level and uses the latest generation of products as a solution partner. "Eckelmann products have been synonymous with innovation and reliability for years. And Eckelmann is always open and attentive to new requirements and customer wishes," Besana emphasizes. "The combination of these two experiences is now giving rise to an ambitious project. Our declared aim is to provide the best possible advice and support to manufacturers of automation systems in Italy together with Eckelmann as a solution provider with comprehensive industry expertise."
