Vertikal Comment
This new machine and the 27 that will follow, show just how far the Italian company has come in terms of design and engineering. The new machines incorporate a level of structural sophistication way beyond that seen on the products that the company launched just a few years back. They are definitely worth a closer look if you are in Italy this week.
