Innovating to discover increasingly efficient solutions for water management is a fundamental part of Caprari‘s core business. Thanks to its internal research and development division and production capabilities, the Modena-based industrial group is able to offer highly efficient and reliable products. Each new solution is designed to meet specific market demand in the most effective and technologically advanced way. With this objective in mind, Caprari internally develops exclusive patents aimed at improving the performance of its products.

Starting from the design stage, the company pays the utmost attention to all the measures that can improve the life of the product and has patented several devices like Defender, Easy Check, Sand-Out System, Smart-Fix System, ConnectoFlex, HT Coupling, and HT-High Trust Bearing that protect the pump and extend the product life cycle, reducing its environmental impact and overall costs for the end-user.

The MAC series Submersible Motors have significantly increased their performance thanks to the innovative HT-High Trust bearing, patented exclusively by Caprari (Caprari International Patent), with margins of tolerance that make the device extremely reliable in all conditions of use.  Today the HT-High Thrust bearing is present in MAC6 Submersible Motors as well as in the MAC8 and MAC10 larger-sized motors, both in cast iron and stainless steel version.

This special patent allows obtaining a more durable product and improved axial load resistance: Its performance provides the Motor with a structural oversizing with respect to the actual thrust that the wet end generates, even during operation transients. To achieve this result, the cage supports, and skids have been completely redesigned on new concepts. With the same dimensions, the HT thrust bearing withstands at least three times the load of a traditional Mitchell bearing.

Thanks to its exclusive and diversified know-how, Caprari provides complete solutions for every major water requirement, including collection from deep wells, wastewater and drain water lifting, water supply, and distribution for residential, industrial, and agricultural purposes and various water treatment applications. Innovation and reliability of exclusive products and services dedicated to the customer: these are the strategic assets that have always distinguished Caprari.

“We are thrilled to be among some of the top AgTech companies in the world providing innovative technological solutions to help solve global challenges in food production. We are especially proud to accept this award because it is emblematic of our efforts to create lasting and sustainable solutions that support farmers, while also positively impacting the environment,”

said MagGrow CEO Gary Wickham.

The THRIVE | Bayer Sustainability Challenge aims to identify and support key start-up and scaleup innovators like MagGrow in implementing solutions that promote sustainability. In partnership with SVG and Bayer, the collaborative is working to reduce the environmental impact of crop protection, reduce field greenhouse gas emissions, and empower smallholder farmers to access sustainable agricultural solutions. The THRIVE | Bayer Sustainability Challenge combines Bayer Crop Sciences’ sustainability commitments and THRIVE’s Global Initiative focus on the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals to promote innovations that can address pressing challenges in the global agri-food chain.

MagGrow’s core magnetic-assist technology was recognized for its ability to significantly reduce waste, improve sustainability practices, and deliver important plant protection products where they matter the most. Using the MagGrow system, growers have seen improved coverage of 40% or more compared to conventional spraying, and reduced off-target losses by up to 70%.

As the winner of the scaleup category, MagGrow received an automatic nomination for THRIVE’s TOP 50 AgTech and FoodTech listings, in addition to earning pilot project sponsorships from Bayer and access to Bayer’s investment and R&D resources. The company is also eligible to participate in future partnerships within THRIVE’s network.

In order to attract and retain the best talent, the company’s Research & Development department offers its engineers and product designers an exceptional environment where they can enjoy a corporate culture of innovation to develop breakthrough technologies for an outstanding product-line as well as customized units for very special applications.

After many innovations, PRINOTH has announced the latest issuance of several patents covering innovative features in the field of rubber tracked all-terrain vehicles:

U.S. Patent 10,384,732 protects PRINOTH’s unique undercarriage design with overlap between the support wheels and either the drive wheel or the end wheel, in addition to several other features. PRINOTH’s PANTHER vehicles offer outstanding reach in remote areas and various terrain conditions, including gravel, sand, water, rocks, steep hills, swamps or even deep mud.

U.S. Patent 10,407,112 protects a vehicle chassis with an upper portion supporting a cab and mounted onto a lower portion that extends behind the cab to support work equipment. The RAD (Rapid Attachment Design) chassis is a unique innovation that raises the bar in the industry in terms of productivity for customers in the power utility sector, and it allows them to save precious time with their equipment installation as well as lowering the overall center of gravity of the unit. Finally, this patented technical solution minimizes the total vehicle’s height to ease transportation from one jobsite to the next.
