Moldtech y Grupo Rodiñas They are consolidating their two-decade-long alliance in northwest Iberia. Since 2006, they have operated a multi-product plant in A Coruña to optimize the production of prefabricated concrete, guaranteeing efficiency and durability in civil engineering and industrial building projects.
The industrialization of precast concrete in the Iberian Peninsula has undergone a progressive evolution, driven by the need to improve the productive efficiency, Quality Control and the ability to adapt to different construction typologies. In this scenario, collaboration between Moldtech y Grupo Rodiñas It constitutes a representative case of long-term industrial implementation.
Grupo Rodiñas, based in Galicia and operational presence in the province of A CoruñaThe company specializes in the manufacture and assembly of prefabricated elements for public infrastructure, industrial buildings, and residential properties. It has participated in a wide variety of regional projects, reflecting the need for a versatile production base.
Technical configuration: the multi-product plant model
The collaboration began in 2006 with the supply and commissioning of a complete plant. The project responded to a strictly industrial need: to have a facility capable of combining the production of prestressed structural elementsmanufacturing of pillars and panels, avoiding overly specialized configurations and optimizing the use of resources.
The current technical infrastructure is based on the integration of several high-capacity manufacturing lines:
- 3 universal prestressing tracks equipped with 800-ton headers.
- Production of delta beams, I-beams and LTR-type beams.
- Pillar molds designed for different structural sections.
- 6 tilting tables originals for industrial and residential panels.
This combination allows for the concentration of linear element manufacturing, vertical supports, and enclosure systems in a single facility. Universal tracks facilitate the creation of different geometries through formwork adaptation, while tilting tables optimize repetitive production cycles with strict adherence to strict control mechanisms. dimensional control.
| Equipment / Milestone | Technical Details / Capacity | Year |
|---|---|---|
| Start of Operations | Start-up of integrated plant | 2006 |
| Prestressed runways | 800-ton headers | Original |
| Plant Expansion | New tilting table (24 x 4 m) | 2018 |
| Additional Technology | Pneumatic vibration and magnetic formwork | 2018 |
Evolution and durability: 20 years of continuous performance
The relationship between Moldtech y Grupo Rodiñas It has evolved through the incorporation of new equipment. In 2018, a significant expansion was carried out with a new 24 x 4 meter tilting table, intended for building panels. This supply included systems for pneumatic vibrationband regulation and solutions magnetic formwork.
One of the most relevant industrial indicators is asset longevity. After more than two decades of intensive operation, the plant continues to operate with the original molds. According to project records, this fact is a direct indicator of the structural durability of the equipment and its operational reliability under real industrial conditions.
In the prefabrication sector, where repeatability directly influences profitability, the durability of equipment represents a clear benchmark in terms of return on investment (ROI)The plant has even served as a technology demonstration environment to showcase the performance of the equipment under demanding production conditions.
Key points and frequently asked questions about the industrial alliance
What advantages does the multi-product plant model offer for the Iberian Northwest?
It allows for the simultaneous management of infrastructure, industrial, and residential building projects from a single location. This optimizes planning and adapts resources to a diversified regional demand without the need for costly specialized facilities.
What has been the most significant technical expansion carried out at the plant?
In 2018, a 24 x 4 meter tilting table equipped with pneumatic vibration technology and magnetic formwork systems was integrated, which allowed for an increase in the production capacity of building panels.
How does the durability of Moldtech equipment impact the profitability of Grupo Rodiñas?
The operability of the original molds after 20 years guarantees an extended asset life cycle, reducing replacement costs and ensuring production continuity, which is fundamental for the return on investment in the industrial sector.
