Qimarox - Company Profile



Qimarox is a leading manufacturer of components for material handling systems. As a manufacturer of, among other things, palletisers and product elevators, Qimarox distinguishes itself by its contemporary vision and approach, in which innovation, quality, and added value are of paramount importance.


History
Qimarox emerged from Nedpack, which was established in 1995. From the beginning, Nedpack had a strong focus on the manufacture of palletisers and product elevators. Today, Nedpack supplies various types of components to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and system integrators worldwide. A few examples are the Prorunner mk1 product elevator, the Prorunner mk5 vertical conveyor, and the Highrunner mk7 palletiser, a series that will be further extended in the coming years. These components are traditionally very common in production and final packaging lines, especially in the food industry, but also in other sectors. In recent years, product elevators have also increasingly found a ready market in warehouses and distribution centres.
Because of the difference in activities, the Components Division was split off from Nedpack in 2012 and transferred to Qimarox. While Nedpack now only focuses on the design, integration, service, and maintenance of complete end-of-line packaging systems, Qimarox focuses purely on the development and production of key components for original equipment manufacturers and system integrators.


Mission
Qimarox aspires to be a leading manufacturer of components that make material handling systems faster, more flexible, and more durable. The Qimarox components are characterised by the simplicity and speed with which they can be integrated. They are reliable and durable, resulting in maximum operational availability for end customers. Finally, the costs for operation and maintenance of the components are minor, which contributes to a low total cost of ownership. Innovation, quality, and ease of operation are key aspects of the Qimarox approach.
Vision
The material handling systems market requires components that combine high performance with low costs and which meet the following requirements:
·         Modular design, for quick and easy installation and modification.
·         Multifunctional, so they are versatile and can combine different tasks.
·         Durable, so they require little maintenance and have a high degree of operational availability.
Qimarox does this in several ways:
·         We are always on the lookout for innovative concepts. One feature of our components is that they work differently (and are smarter) than conventional components in the market.
·         Thanks to continuous development, our components are highly standardised, making them quick and easy to manufacture and low in price.
·         Wherever possible, we use the same types of components, and which are generically available, so the costs for service and maintenance remain limited.
