In Vicenza, the Italian industry is taking place towards a center of excellence for motorsport
Alonte (VICENZA) March 26, 2009- Athena S.p.a., the Vicenza group founded 35 years ago by the entrepreneur Gianni Mancassola and active in the sector of endothermic permotor components, acquired small research center from Casalecchio di Reno (Bologna) from the American multinational Walbroil. Known as Walbro Italy, it specializes in the production of electronic systems to make the engines more performing. With the acquisition, the management of the Vicenza area continues with the aim of creating a center of excellence, capable of treating all engine departments. Athena started dealing with control units in 2007, purchasing the GET brand and founding Athena Evolution.
Walbro Italy was born in 1985 as "TTD" from the inventiveness of a group of technicians who, before creating the new company, worked at MagnetiMarelli. Subsequently it was acquired by Walbro, who, however, always let it work as an independent structure, exploiting electronic technologies for sale on the market or integration with its products, purely mechanical. In almost twenty-five years of work, Walbro Italy has oriented its activity mainly in the sector, starting in 1986 with sports injections for the Formula 3 engines and becoming, a year later, the official supplier of LamborghiniMarine for the 1987 Off Shore World Championship.
Walbro Italy patents will be an integral part of the Athena project, which will use them to enhance their presence in the sports world, together with the technologies developed for the GET brand, operating in the sector of data acquisition systems via GPS, in engine management control units, injections electronic for off road motorcycles. The Vicenza group has been supplying the Yamaha of the R SeriesCup for four years with GET material and is a partner and supplier of some of the strong off-road stables, such as Red Bull Yamaha de Carli, Martin Honda, Teka Suzuki and others. Athena's offer of electronic technologies will not be limited, however, to solo sport, but will also be destined for the series: the group provides for the stipulation of supply contracts with the main manufacturers in the automotive and motorcycle sectors, to which it already supplies components for engines.
Athena's headquarters are located in Alonte, but the industry is home to nine factories between Italy and abroad, for a total of six hundreds. Abroad, it is present with branches in Brazil, India and the United States. On the national territory it is based in Carmagnola (TO), in Montreale Valcellina (PN); in Erchie (BR). Using the subsidiary ATHENA EvolutionSrl, it produces integrated electronics and mechanics kits including control units, special drains and thermal groups."
