Summer Break 2024

Summer Break 2024

Once again this year it is time for the summer break, which is helpful for everyone to recharge their batteries after a very busy and laborious first half of the year.

That’s why our offices will be closed from 12 to 23 August inclusive.

However, although we will off for a couple of weeks, our channels will remain active: any orders or requests received during this period will be taken care of when we come back.

At the moment, we only have to wish everyone a happy holiday. Whether relaxing or adventurous, at sea or in the mountains, what is important is that you come back ready to face the coming months, which promise to be busy!

Factory Test Passed!

One of our customers recently visited us to test our Magiscop MinicemCemsa 1000/500 equipped with two modular electromagnetic generators, one single-phase and the other three-phase, electronically controlled, and the associated demagnetisation tunnel for magnetic particle testing of aeronautical parts.

The single-phase generator, capable of delivering alternating current, HWDC and single-phase FWDC, is equipped with a special autotransformer that allows the current output to be modulated while respecting a form factor of 2.5, although ISO 9934-1-part3 requires a ratio between peak value and RMS equal to 3.

The three-phase generator, on the other hand, is dedicated to longitudinal magnetisation with core heads directly mounted on the expansions.

Furthermore, this particular bench allows even the smallest parts to be clamped between the heads by simply selecting the clamping force from the operator panel. This operation is made possible by a very pressure-sensitive electric drive.

Our technicians are now ready for installation in Serbia at the customer’s production facility, and the customer was very pleased with the final performance and the tests carried out; there is always great satisfaction on our part in seeing our customer’s requests and expectations fulfilled.

CGM Running Team at Milano Marathon 2024

After last year’s success, Running Team CGM took place again at the starting line of the Relay Milano Marathon 2024 on Sunday 7 April, full of enthusiasm and a desire to have fun.

Our acclaimed champions, already authors of last year’s adventure, Anna Mori, Ramona Tiengo and Eugenio Feneri, once again competed in the relay race, joined this year by our new Technical Office Manager Giuseppe Melis, replacing Michele Burei; he temporarily gave up the relay race for this occasion in order to achieve an even more ambitious goal: complete the 42 km route alone!

Obviously, ours achieved their respective goals with their usual stubbornness and tenacity, contemptuous of the fatigue and heat that hindered them: our relay runners finished the race in 5 hours and 6 minutes, while Michele completed the titanic task in 4 hours and 6 minutes.

However, beyond this purely and sporting aspect, CGM has once again committed itself to supporting the charitable initiatives, which characterizes the event. We have decided to renew our commitment to the Dynamo Camp Foundation, which has been dedicated for years to offering specific Recreational Therapy programs free of charge to children and adolescents suffering from chronic illnesses – either in therapy or in the post-hospitalization period – to restore their self-confidence and their abilities, trying at the same time to improve the quality of life of their families.

Having fun does not mean only this: we do not want to forget initiatives aimed at improving our society and, as far as possible, we want to offer our concrete contribution, always aware of the importance of solidarity, especially considering the times we are all living in.

Anyway: once again, congratulations guys! Not only for representing our company in the best possible way, but for once again bringing a smile to people in need. We are all very proud of you!

But now the time for celebration is over: Marathon 2025 is coming up and you cannot be caught unprepared!

Rotvel Avio Stick

Technical datasheet

General description

The Rotvel Avio Stick is a color contrast penetrant for high temperature inspections with excellent resolution in detecting surface discontinuity indications. It generates an excellent red color contrast with good penetration characteristics. The penetrant is in the solid state; once in contact with the hot surface, it liquefies and penetrates into the possible discontinuities. For removal it is suggested to use a cloth soaked in Velemulsior H2O. Due to the remarkable penetrant fluidity, the formation of the indications is practically instantaneous after the application of the developer.
