In its eagerness to improve its equipment, following its line of manufacturing robust and durable products that also stand out for their energy efficiency, the Valencian company will present its new packaging machine, the DL-295 model, at Expoliva 2023.

A new stage marked by generational change and sustained growth, without losing sight of its main hallmarks and always maintaining close contact with the numerous customers who throughout all these years have placed their trust in the brand.
Vicente Carot, manager of AUTELEC Tecnología, remembers that “we have been loyal to Expoliva since those first editions that were held in the military installations, at the entrance to Jaén. For us Expoliva is the fair par excellence of the olive sector and represents an excellent opportunity to meet again with our friends and clients, as well as the best showcase to present our products and new developments.”
Once the pandemic is over, Carot considers that the XXI edition of the International Olive Oil and Related Industries Fair represents the definitive return to normality and is convinced that Expoliva 2023 “will mean a before and after.”
Energy efficiency, durability and maintenance
The company will take advantage of the celebration of this edition to launch a renewed version of the DL-294 Plus packaging machine, the new DL-295, with which the Valencian firm is committed to improving its energy efficiency as a priority objective. “We live in times where the incessant rise in energy is becoming a very important part of the production cost – says Carot – and, therefore, we made it a priority to reduce the consumption of the new DL-295. Well, we have managed to reduce it by almost 50% compared to the previous model, achieving 95% energy savings with the ECO operating mode and thus helping our customers to reduce their carbon footprint and be more efficient. energetically.” Another aspect that distinguishes the equipment designed and manufactured by AUTELEC Tecnología is, without a doubt, durability. In this regard, Vicente Carot maintains that “the planet needs durable equipment that does not have to be discarded in the short term, with adjusted maintenance and consumption. Our first packaging machines have already far exceeded 30 years of operation, thus contributing to reducing the waste caused by other machines that become obsolete in a few years, which requires their replacement, generating not only an expense that is sometimes unnecessary, but an amount of waste that, in our opinion, could be avoided or considerably reduced.”
On the other hand, the firm has always been committed to the maintenance of all its equipment, which, today, is guaranteed with all the spare parts necessary for its correct functioning. In this way, the decision to purchase a new one based solely on the modernization and improvement of its functions, and not on the obligation to replace it for reasons of planned obsolescence of the machine, is left in the hands of the client who has an old machine in use. equipment. “The simplest thing,” explains Carot, “would be to stop providing service to those equipment that has been in operation for more than 30 years, but, quite the contrary, our policy has been and continues to be to strive to continue maintaining them at full capacity, understanding that The decision to replace them should always rest with the owner and not the manufacturer. Thus, each client can assess their situation and resources to make the decision to acquire or maintain their equipment. We understand that other brands, due to their structure, cannot continue supporting their equipment, their obsolescence not always being intentional, but forced by external elements.”

The company has national suppliers that provide greater security of supply, in addition to helping to keep the industrial fabric active.
