If we consider the mechanical sector in
a broad sense, including also electrical
and electronic appliances and all types
of machinery, this sector is in 2nd place
on the list of exports of the Venice province,
with an export flow in 2007 of over 730
million Euro and an increase of 5.7% compared
with the previous year. The companies of
the sector are located above all in the
area of Marghera, Mirano and San Donà di
Piave and are characterised by a varied
manufacturing activity.
Analysing the engineering sector in
detail, it can be seen how high the number
of company products of this sector is:
- industrial machinery:
equipment and systems for processing
wood, agricultural machinery and tools,
machinery for the shoemaking industry,
machines for cutting fabrics, for conversion
of abrasive materials and machinery for
the processing of plastic materials,
handling systems, painting systems, solvent
purifying systems, machinery for the
production of brushes, for processing
Indian millet and monofilament, industrial
ovens for the production of glass, mechanical
electrical hoisters, profiling tools
for cold-pressing of metal, systems for
the production of welded tubing in high
frequency, overinjection and overcompression
moulds for the automobile sector, transport
and metering systems and additive weighing
for steel mills, driers and concrete
mixers.
- machines for special
use: guide-ways in
metal for storage and handling in
abbatoirs, humidifiers, driers, handling
hoppers, refrigerator units, straighteners
and flatteners, machines for the
manufacturing of ophthalmic lenses,
concrete mixers, rail-track grinding
vehicles, truck mixers.
- machine tools and their
parts: pressure rollers
for textile machines, automatic labelling
machines for packaging lines, universal
sharpeners for milling machines,
abrasive wheels, conveyor belt chains,
machine tools for mechanical workshops,
robots for injection presses, pricing
guns, welding torches, agricultural
levelling blades, mowers and bush
cutters, knives and granulators for
cutting plastic, circular saws for
cutting light alloys, electric pumps,
thermoventilation units, cooling
towers.
- machines and machinery for
environmental safety and refuse disposal: extraction,
filtering and dust suction systems,
industrial plants for recycling waste,
vacuum evaporation systems for purification
of refuse, plants for treating industrial
waste, mobile crushing units for
the recycling of demolition material.
The electric-electronic sector produces
an equally large number of goods: intercommunication
and video-intercommunication systems, chronothermostats,
assembly kits for radio-receivers and amplifiers,
transmitters of analogical and digital
data, units for monitoring environmental
air quality, laser radio-frequency pistols,
barcode readers, electronic sensors and
units, telephone and computer equipment,
three-phase and single-phase power supplies,
refrigerator units, isolating switches
for medium, high and very high voltage,
electric motors, cam rotating electric
switches, distribution and power transformers
in oil and resin.
