Hi Roadrat.
I am certainly his paper roll clamp is Bolzoni-Auramo.

Hi RMG1
The Cascade you prefer, please to watch alternative of Bolzoni-Auramo. Better price, better service, better quality. If you are to dealer of fork lift can buy the cascade, if you is final client he does not sell nor he takes care of service to him to him.

Thanks guys for your input.
Installed a paper-roll clamp back last summer, it is coming up almost a year being in service, and except for a very small leak at a pressure test port, no problems.

Operator loves it, especially the stop feature.
The fact you can use a 4-function valve without having to hang
electric valves for the 5th function is a plus. Makes the install easier and more cost effective for the customer and no pesky switches attached to control levers.

I would imagine it comes down to which of the two companies offer the best services the area where the end user is located. Personally I prefer Cascade however I would never refuse to look at alternative(s).

IT IS NOT BOLZONI-" AURORA".
IT IS BOLZONI-AURAMO.
BOLZONI + AURAMO + BRUDI + MEYER A SIMPLE REASON TO CONSIDER BOLZONI BETTER THAN CASCADE.
CASCADE ONLY SALES TO DEALERS OF FORK LIFT.
BOLZONI ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD HAS REPRESENTATIVES AND DEALERS WITH PRESENCE AND TECHNICAL SERVICE IN EACH COUNTRY.
GOOD PRICES, BETTER QUALITY, BETTER ATTENDANCE OF SALE, BETTER SERVICE POST SALE.
RESULT: BOLZONI-AURAMO IS BETTER THAN CASCADE.

****** IF YOU NEED A ATTACHMENT, PLEASE IS NOT MISTAKEN CHOOSES : BOLZONI-AURAMO******

yep i agree with andy on the cascade pin breakage issue.they should engineer the problem out, not blame the oporator.in general the bolzoni stuff seems quite good.

Sold Bolzoni for 4 years. No problems, product support good, people are great to work with - sales & service.

Price seems to be a bit better than others - when it comes to specials Cascade can react faster - Bolzoni comes from Itlay - automatic 45 days plus shipping time + special engineering time, production time, etc.

In my opinion Bolzoni equipment is more robust than Cascade equivalents (if a little less refined). You don't get the same levels of pin breakage and bush wear from the Bolzoni equipment. I know Cascade will blame the pin breakage and bush wear on operators over or under clamping reels etc, but they are problems you don't get with the Bolzoni stuff.
