Grabbing bales made quick and easy
Front end loader and implement specialist Quicke has introduced the new Unigrip L+ and XL+ next-generation bale grabs, designed for users who need strength, efficiency, and soft handling in their daily tasks.
Located in Campagnola, North of Bologna in the province of Reggio Emilia, not too far from the famous Ferrari headquarters, the new site covers an area of 30,000m² (3ha) and employs over 150 people, who work on four assembly lines supported by pre-assembly areas.
One line is dedicated to the production of transmissions for specialist, light and medium utility tractors, while a second equips tractors destined for low regulated emission markets.
The third and fourth assembly lines are for transmissions for medium to high power tractors. On the same site, there are also extensive testing facilities for mechanical and hydraulic componentry as well as complete transmissions.

Like the tractor production sites at Fabbrico, San Martino in Rio and Luzzara it feeds, the Campagnola plant uses the Kaizen industrial production philosophy of continuous improvement, through the application of concepts that have led over the years to the development of lines supplied by specific and targeted components for each type of product.
Special attention is paid to the supply of components to the assembly lines, which is managed through a “supermarket” style warehouse that is constantly fed by the central warehouse and from which the specific components of the individual transmissions are routed to the assembly lines.
