BERCO S.p.A.
Leadership in Undercarriage For about 90 years Bercos leadership and research has resulted in the greatest undercarriage value. Quality is the critical link that assures the maximum productivity of your machine. No one has invested more than Berco to assure dependable High Quality Undercarriage. Berco starts with the highest quality steel, then controls hardened depth along with other performance features. As a result Bercos undercarriage is second to none for extended wear life and value.
Getting the Most from your Undercarriage Since 1920 Berco has continued to innovate and improve undercarriage performance. High-quality materials and careful manufacturing processes ensure that Berco undercarriage components are reliable, durable and wear at a predictable rate. Longer life and controllable wear mean that you get maximum undercarriage performance at the lowest operating cost. At Berco we call it Best Undercarriage Value.
Berco Process Control Berco builds value & durability into every undercarriage component. Berco controls processes critical to durability and value, such as: design, raw material, heat treatment, manufacturing and, because Berco has control over these processes, our undercarriages wear at a predictable rate and can be managed as a system.

With a capacity of over 250,000 ton of finished product, Berco manufactures more than 180,000 chains, 6,000,000 track shoes, 1,300,000 rollers and 380,000 idlers and sprockets per year. BMU components are made of austempered cast iron (Berco patent), heat treated (austempering) and machined. Track shoes are made of cast iron in a unique one piece with the track link (monobloc) and the bushing. Complete track chains are then assembled in a fully automatic transfer line (Berco Design) where all important parameters are monitored. Rollers are cast, machined and finally assembled with shafts, hubs, collars and seal groups. Sprockets and idlers are cast, heat treated (austempered) and machined. For larger class machines 4-6 tons, track chains are also available in the traditional version: forged track links and bolted shoes. Links after forging are heat treated, machined, induction hardened on the rail surface. Chain links are then assembled with seal groups, pin and bushings. Track shoes are cut/punched from rolled profile steel sections, through hardened and stress relieved. Painting completes the process while final inspection on the finished products guarantees the Total Quality of all components.
Heat Treated to Treat You Even Better Quality materials and state-ofart manufacturing are not enough to guarantee the quality of the finished products. Thats why the heat treating processes are carried out making sure that all process parameters (temperature gradients, time, quenching temperature, etc.) are constantly monitored online. Hardening and tempering upgrade mechanical properties for superior wear resistance, stress relieving guarantees perfect geometry and excellent resistance for longer product life. Automated Processes Automatic Quality The entire production process is fully automated and computer controlled via Computer Manufacturing Technology systems. This guarantees a highly reliable process and constant quality of the products. The Right Product at The Right Time A vast variety of raw materials and flexible manufacturing give the competitive advantage of short lead times while matching your specific need. Thats what we also call Customer Satisfaction.
