MOVING YOUR IDEASL I N E A R A N D T E L E S C O P I C M O T I O N T E C H N O L O G Y

T RACE SpAHas been founded in 2004 thanks to long

linear motion. The winning idea was to de-velop an high performances range of lin-

application using an innovative production process, providing:

• Increased load/moment capacities • Much increased corrosion resistances • Easy assembly• Lower cost

The HQ and the production facility is locat-ed in Aicurzio (Milan) Italy, in a new larger building of 2.000 mq with 4.000 mq land.

T RACE GmbHThe German branch T RACE GmbH was established in January 2006 and it is locat-ed in Burscheid (Dusseldorf). The facility of 500 mq with good stock and a small local production, assure good ser-vice to direct OEM customers, along with German distributors.

are supplied by a close world-

relative small own organization, to assure competitive pro-duction costs and low share of investments.

Highly modular products:production/assembling in main international markets, with relatively small investment, to assure fast local deliveries and eventual minor customization of the products locally.

Internally the company’s IT-system operates on E.R.P. 2, to assure an integrated processing from R&D to actual sale.

Manufacturing processes: Internal production is mainly related to
