“Opening the new Trio Italy Application Development Centre will provide additional support to our customer base of machine builders in the country,” says Trio Motion Technology’s President, Tom Alexander. “Italy is an important market for Trio, and the country is a centre for sectors including packaging that demand high performance motion control systems. Our new Application Development Centre, under the management of Mauro Lavatelli, will help Trio grow in Italy.”
“Launching Trio Italy is an exciting opportunity,” says, Mauro Lavatelli. “Our engineering team is highly experienced in motion control, drives & motors, and robotics applications development. The Italian machine build market remains strong, and we’ll be supporting our OEMs to create more productive and efficient machines.”
