Relocation of HPHT presses for Algordanza

Industrial relocation & machinery transport by EMIL EGGER

Algordanza AG is the only manufacturer of memorial diamonds worldwide. From the urn ashes of the deceased, a diamond is created that can always be carried with you and is everlasting. The isolation of the carbon, by means of a chemical process is carried out in the Swiss laboratory by experienced laboratory technicians. To enable crystal synthesis, conditions must be created as in the earth's interior. Diamonds are formed by pressure and high temperatures. This is simulated by HPHT (High Pressure - High Temperature) presses and allows the memory diamonds to be created.

In total, 12 lower plunger presses for the production of commemorative diamonds were transported by EMIL EGGER from the old to the new location. At each location we were on site with a pneumatic crane or mobile crane and a team. Thus we were able to transport up to 6 presses per day. We thank you for your confidence in our industrial relocation team and the order!
