History

CIRIGLIANO is a company specialized in fan engineering. It offers to the market Axial, Centrifugal and Helicoidal Fans addressed to the industry, mining industry and agricultural sector. The history of CIRIGLIANO goes back to 90 years of continuous innovation and progress.

1920: Mr. Domingo Pascual Cirigliano performs re-fitting works of agricultural machines and manufactures spare parts with a smithy and a little smelting furnace.

1922: Pascual starts manufacturing bombs to extract water, bronze rollers and valves among other things.

1926: Pascual establishes his direct contact with cereals and begins to manufacture machines to strip grains on a Ford T chassis. The company annexes a tale paver furnace and manufactures a familiar firewood kitchen line, sinks and toilets for the Pacific Railroad.

1936: The Company prepares didactic material for machinists and applicants of Jorge Stephenson’s School. It contributes to the development and training of the driving locomotive personnel.

1938: Cirigliano commences to manufacture electric engines applied to bombs. The company establishes the first contact with the Anglo Argentina General Electric company. General Electric is interested in Cirigliano's manufacture line for its commercialization.

1940: The war brings to America supply problems of electric lamps. Hence, Mr. Pascual switches on a furnace battery for glass and produces lamps, boiler material levels, optical glazing, and so on.

1941: Cirigliano manufactures Genalex fans and air extractors. The company launches to the market Samson windmills, made for the firm J.F. Macadam & Cia.

Cirigliano manufactures all the Genalex fans and extractors in the city of Junín and General Electric commercializes them in Buenos Aires.

1944: The company manufactures axial fans.

1958: GEC invites Mr. Pascual Cirigliano to Europe to visit the factories that said company has in England. There, Pascual obtains the license to manufacture in our country the Generalex line of axial fans, with aerofoil section blades and adjustable pitch. Pascual introduces to manufacture engines in operation with a permanent condenser.

1964: Pascual Cirigliano retires from the company and forms a corporation with his children. Then, they launch to the market the first mufflers for axial flow fans, incorporate the manufacture of lighting devices that work with steam mercury, and complete the engines production line for fans with direct coupling up to 12 poles. In addition, they improve fans test facilities and incorporate advanced control equipments.

Mid ‘70s, the company publishes the first "Ventilation Practical Guide", to guide the agricultural producer. It also introduces to the market drying-up systems of sausages, spaghetti, fish, fruits, woods, and so on. Then, the company begins to manufacture the line of centrifugal fans applied to air conditioning systems.
1974: Mr. Pascual Domingo Cirigliano dies. Alciro and Anibal Cirigliano travel to England to take a ventilation - engineering course.

Mid `80s, Cirigliano develops high-pressure glass blowers for furnaces and pneumatic transport, axial fans with adjustable pitch blades.
1984: The project about fans with adjustable pitch blades concludes, being approved the final prototype and its standardization. Later, the development of a wind tunnel begins for the performance of a laser beam, with the engineers' assistance from the Engineering department of the University of Buenos Aires. A Computation centre is established, developing programs for the application of the scientific calculation.

1995: Cirigliano introduces in Argentina ebm engines of external rotor for small alternating and continuous current fans with poles exchanged electronically. Nowadays, Cirigliano is still working with the company but as a distributor, providing grilles, diffusers, supports and the whole line of micro fans of the recognized German mark.

CIRIGLIANO provided to a considerable number of important companies of our country.
