The top position that we hold in the supply of hydraulic machines is based on our strong commitment to research
and development. At present we run four test loops in Austria and Switzerland, where we develop our pumps and
turbines and “put them to the test”, the target being to develop pumps and turbines with highest efficiencies and
responding to the requirements posed by our customers. These R&D centres work together closely, creating a
network within the ANDRITZ GROUP with continuous know-how transfer, to the benefit of our global customers.
