The latest data (January-September 2015) on the export of transfer machines as a whole, that means the linear transfer together with the rotary transfer and the unit construction machines (single station) report that Italy has now reached Germany and is going to overtake it in the global data related to the year 2015. This means Italy will become the first exporter country of transfer machines.

The overtaking of Italy on Germany had already happened a few years ago concerning the rotary transfer that is the transfer produced by Buffoli Transfer Spa. The recent -3% of the German export of the transfer machines together with the +21% of the Italian export can reasonably predict an overtake at the end of 2015 also in the aggregate data of linear, rotary and unit construction transfer machines.
