TIM : 1965 - 2023
The first flexible mechanical feeder TRANSITUBE was born in 1960. It was intended for the power supply of grain or flour silos. This first "flexible mechanical feeder" by its original design has quickly conquered its users by its simplicity and its efficiency. Quickly its field of activity has extended: chemistry, pharmacy, food and plastic industries.
For this specific field, TRANSlTUBE has entrusted the company TIM the development and market of transfer using the technique of the flexible screw.
Boosted by its experience, TIM managed to satisfy its partners and extend its range of activity in the whole world.
Moreover TIM associated new applications and developments with the mechanical transfer activity: individual or centralized transfer, mixing, colouring, recycling as well as engineering activity for the turn-key installations.
TIM has become through all these years a production unit of the TRANSITUBE. Granted of a genuine know-how, TIM is today an actor that companies which wish to get TRANSITUBE equipments can't ignore.
