| Company Introduction: | glass Tyrolit Vincent S.p.A. was created in 1994 through the merger of Tyrolit Italiana S.p.A. - a branch of the Austrian multinational group Tyrolit-Swarovski - and Vincent srl. Vincent had already gained a leading position by building up awareness of its brand over the years. There were two milestones in this growth: the production of grinders for machining optical lenses and, later, the development of advanced knowledge for designing and manufacturing diamond grinders for all work on flat glass. The Vincent?trademark still today represents a point of reference around the world, from South America to the Far East, for the exceptional performance of its products, the guaranteed quality and the high level of specialization attained. An unrivalled and acknowledged leadership. All Tyrolit Vincent products guarantee high standards of true quality, meaning that their intrinsic features are maintained in the long term and their performance can be relied on. This result - of fundamental importance - has been made possible by the work of the R&D sector and the processes of continual improvement. Tyrolit Vincent has achieved two important goals: ISO 9001 quality certificate and EN ISO 14001 environmental and EMAS certificates. The Glass Division at Tyrolit Vincent designs, manufactures and markets diamond tools - metal and resin bonded - bearing the Vincent?trademark throughout the world, for the main applications of glass: glass for furnishing, glass for the building industry, hollow and illumination glass, lead-crystal glass, automotive glass, optical lenses and glass for special applications. Tyrolit Vincent has a particular talent in the production of metal and resin cup grinders, which have such advanced performance in terms of quality and reliability at high working speeds, that they provide the company with a dominant market role. The range offered includes grinders with segments, semi-segmented and, of course, a wide range of continuous rim grinders. Made to suit nearly all existing machines, these tools assure excellent results for chamfering and machining of flat lines, fillets and chamfering of all types of glass, from thin to laminate. The wide range of peripheral wheels goes from round wheels for bilateral machines, to tools with special profiles mainly used for the manufacture of tables, kitchen and bathroom tops, in which area Vincent?is a landmark company. Tyrolit Vincent manufactures wheels for the following profile types: round (concave wheels); flat (cup/flat peripheral wheels); special profiles. Lastly, a segment of particular interest, and in rapid growth, is that of tools for Numerically Controlled machines and diamond discs for cutting extra thick and impact proof glass. Tyrolit Vincent is the absolute leader in the processing of flat glass, with specific competence in glass for the building industry, glass for furnishing and, particularly, automotive glass. |
