New generation NGx

ETO has developed a coil and coretube module called NGx modular system in order to meet the individual requirements of our customers more quickly in the future.

The number of new components to be developed is low thanks to the modular system, so the production capacity is able to be freed up more quickly for new products.

In addition to optimised product development, the manufacturing of the products is also state-of-the-art thanks to new production concepts.
