Machines and plants by Breton can be used in diverse sectors such as die-making, aerospace, automotive, racing cars, energy, gears, general mechanics, stone processing and kitchen top manufacturing. == History == Breton was established in 1963 in Castello di Godego, Italy, by Marcello Toncelli,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.blurb.com/b/534441-marcello-toncelli )〕 who started developing new technologies and manufacturing industrial plants for producing engineered stone. Marcello Toncelli invented the Bretonstone technology, also known as vibrocompression under vacuum, a patented technology 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/pdfs/US8030441.pdf )〕 which is used today by most engineered stone manufacturers.〔(Technology used by most leading engineered stone manufacturers - according to International Surface Fabricators Association )〕 Around the mid 1990s the company decided to enter also into the machine tool market, manufacturing machining centres for the mechanical industry. In 2003 Marcello Toncelli, Breton's founder, died, and the control of the company passed to his sons Luca and Dario Toncelli, who since then have been running the company together with the founder's long-time partner, Roberto Chiavacci, Vice President of the Board of Directors. In 2011 the company acquired Bideseimpianti and signed a partnership with Boart & Wire, diamond wires manufacturer. In 2014 Breton became an official member of the Graphene Flagship Project, one of the largest research initiative of the European Commission which focuses on the potential applications of graphene. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Breton (company)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
