The
"Lord of the Rings"
It was born in 1961 in Chiuppano, in the industrial zone
just north of Vicenza with a very distinct purpose: to
manufacture rolled rings - on a small, medium and big
scale - but always maintaining a very high quality standard.
Asfo is part of the Fomas Group, world leader in forging.
Celebrating our forty years, we can look back not only
to count the number of candles on the cake but with the
knowledge that our strength can be found in the many year's
experience in working steel, rolling and heat treatment.We
can not say that the great writer Tolkien took his inspiration
from us when he wrote his best-seller "Lord of the
Rings", but we like to believe that we too - just
like the main characters in his book - know a whole load
of secrets about "rings", even though our research
work never stops, and each day we look into new ideas,
new technologies, new advantages that are offered to a
worldwide clientele.
The
future
The present is based on the past
while the future is the bridge we all have to cross and
we have to make sure it is solidly and safely built.
For this reason, alongside experience, constant attention
is paid to designing the production equipment so that
we can always be in the fore. And then we get to our "obsession"
concerning quality which, if it is going to be something
more than just a simple word, it must mean highly accurate
control systems that are able to guarantee repeatability,
perfect conformity and absolute precision
We have learnt that steel, however hard it may be, can
be shaped as we want: though you have to have the right
tools and the capability. We have also learnt to shape
ourselves too not with presses but with the demands of
our customers, market expectations and the desire to forge
ahead.
