Slowly moving ahead...

Brazil still in trouble, 11 million lost their jobs in recent times. The new (not quite legitimate) government unfortunately is an assembly of older politicians, mostly with links to corrupt procedures.

Business is slow and slowing down, no big projects in sight. Car makers selling 46% less. Other branches in deep trouble. Over 1,5 million from 5 million Brazilian companies, mostly the smaller ones, have closed the doors. In 4 years!

Mavi moving ahead, but expecting serious problems in the near future. And supplying more replacement equipment and revamping older machines than selling for new projects.

For **Arcelor** a 2016 replacement feeder, the original supplied 15 years ago.

After many years of operation, **Alibra** decided to revamp a line of powdered milk stainless steel equipment, asking us to return them as "new". Job done.

For **Trevo**, a fertilizer company a new set of double drive **Vicone** silo dischargers, May 2016.

For **CSN**, a steel company, our customer since 1961, a set of replacement **Vical-A** feeders for their Volta Redonda works, April 2016.

A completely revamped **Vibrapen** screening machine for **Alibra**. But as sales of powdered milk in Brazil have decreased and exports are slow, less new machines sold.

For **Magotteaux** Brazil a new steel spheres for cement milling Viproc cooler, replacing an older **Mavi** machine from the 1990.

For **Arcelor** steel works another Vicone 4.000 mm pile discharger, replacement for 20 years old pile discharger in Vitória, Espírito Santo, Brazil. May 2016.

Assembling ferrous magnetic coils cores for a major project in Argentina. **Vimag** electromagnetic vibrators and **Elmavi** feeders from **Mavi** are nr. 1 in Latam.

For **KSB** pumps in São Paulo a replacement shake-out Vigrel type. May 2016.
