F.I.P.I.L.L. S.r.l. obtains the patent for industrial invention

On 22 August 2024, the Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy officially granted F.I.P.I.L.L. S.r.l. the patent for the industrial invention "Improved aluminium alloy and method for producing said improved aluminium alloy".

This is a great satisfaction for a company that, thanks to its passion and extensive experience gained over the years, always tries to find exclusive and original solutions for its customers.

The patent application was filed on 1 October 2021, and it explained in detail the composition of "Fipill aluminium alloy" and the process of making it.

One of the best metals

Remember that Auminium is a ductile metal, widely available in nature and, above all, widely recyclable. These characteristics, together with other more technical ones (Strength, Resistance, Workability, Electrical and Thermal Conductivity, Sound Absorption, Surface Finish, Waterproofness, Reflectivity, Healthiness, etc.), make it one of the best metals on which to focus for industrial activities, now and in the future.

Aluminium is also widely used to produce light alloys, characterised by the combination of zinc, copper, silicon, magnesium and manganese.

Fipill Alloy

Basically, the invention consists of a set of techniques and methods that make it possible to obtain aluminium products with above-average mechanical characteristics, especially hardness.

F.I.P.I.L.L. produces aluminium pulleys that are exported all over the world and used in many different industries/sectors.

The pulley is a high-wear product, but the patented "Fipill Alloy" essentially extends the service life by adjusting the aluminium specifications and that’s one of the reasons why Fipill's products are so popular and have enabled it to become one of the industry leaders.

The "Fipill alloy" and the procedure for increasing the hardness of aluminium are the outcome of the intuitions of Silvano Ricci, founder of the company, perfected over time by his son Claudio, the current Legal Representative.

A great satisfaction

This patent certainly represents a great satisfaction for the entire F.I.P.I.L.L. family and it is undoubtedly another example of those skills of conception, innovation and realisation that have always characterised the company.
