The new ABB I-R system at Brobbendonk is cutting sound insulation components for a leading German car company. Owned by the German industrial group, Phoenix AG, Stankiewicz GmbH has operations in five countries and has been purchasing ABB I-R waterjet cutting systems for a number of years. The Brobbendonk system is the second delivered this year, following on from a new ABB I-R system for Stankiewicz's plant in the USA.
