Wendt to represent Moros line in US

Buffalo, New York-based Wendt Corp. has announced entering into a partnership to sell and service recycling equipment made by Zaragoza, Spain-based Moros Industrias Hidraulicas SA in the North American market.

Wendt Corp., which describes itself as a manufacturer and systems integrator of automobile shredding and nonferrous separation equipment, refers to the Moros product line as consisting of “high-quality and robust machinery for the ferrous and nonferrous scrap metal recycling industry.”

The Moros line consists primarily of metal shears and balers, and Wendt Corp. will now sell and service the product line in the United States, Canada and Mexico.

“The value proposition to our existing and potential customers is to offer high-quality pieces of equipment for baling and shearing applications,” says Manuel San Sebastian, Wendt’s international sales manager. “Wendt’s strengths in sales engineering and integration as well as support for parts and service domestically will offer our customers additional value.”

The partnership between the two firms came to fruition after President Tom Wendt, Sales Director Scott Edwards and Parts & Service Manager Nick Edbauer of Wendt Corp. visited Moros’ manufacturing facility. In conjunction with final discussions on the agreement made by the two companies, Wendt representatives say they were better able to understand Moros’ manufacturing capabilities, pointing to what they call strong technical support that will allow Wendt to fully assist North American customers.

“In touring the Moros facility, I was able to witness first-hand their robust machinery designs and well-integrated controls. I fully expect this equipment to be extremely reliable, and Moros has a strong track record to support that,” says Edbauer. “When our customers do require support, these machines are remote support-friendly, with many monitored sensors in all the right places, as well as top-notch Moros documentation and support staff.”

Remarks Miguel Clavel, the president of Moros, “The Moros team is excited about this new partnership and we all trust it is going be successful for both companies. There is a great and long-standing relationship between both companies that has now resulted in this agreement to provide high-quality scrap machinery in this demanding market. Wendt has the staff, knowledge and the structure to explain all the technical advantages of Moros machines and to provide a superb after-sales support.”

Wendt Corp. indicates it will offer the full product line from Moros, with its sales efforts focusing on its three-ram balers and stationary shears.
