What Linz Electric does

Linz Electric S.p.A. is an Italian manufacturer of alternators and rotating welders, founded in 2002 and headquartered in Arcole (Verona), Italy, operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pedrollo Group S.r.l. The company designs and produces synchronous alternators in 2-pole (2.6-32 kVA) and 4-pole (3.5-1800 kVA) configurations, 9-phase low-voltage DC alternators, electronic voltage regulators (including the Linz-DR30 digital regulator with Bluetooth, NFC and cloud telecontrol), and AC/DC rotating welders. Its branded product families include the PRO and COMPATTO marine series (RINA and DNV certified), the PRO40 high-power brushless series (up to 1800 kVA), the ALUMEN series for lighting towers, the BC9 nine-phase battery charger for hybrid systems, the PRO-DG digital series, and the HFW high-frequency welder. Manufacturing is fully verticalized at the Arcole facility, which has expanded from 5,000 to over 20,000 square meters and includes a 250 sqm certified quality testing room; major components such as windings, shafts, die-cast parts, and electronic regulators are produced in-house, with engineering support from Procomec for advanced simulation.

The company sells primarily B2B to generator-set manufacturers, marine and naval integrators, telecom and data-center backup-power providers, lighting-tower OEMs, mining and hybrid-energy system integrators, and industrial welding buyers. Pricing is quote-based and configuration-specific with no public list price, and contracts are typically multi-year OEM supply arrangements. Distribution is direct in Italy and through the wholly-owned Linz Electric Inc. subsidiary in Northbrook, Illinois (established 2016) for the US and Canada, complemented by EASA membership providing access to 1,400+ service centers across the Americas. Linz Electric maintains an active international trade-fair presence (Middle East Energy Dubai, GPOWER Shanghai, Power-Gen) and holds ISO 9001:2015, cCSAus, UL, RINA, DNV, SONCAP, and LavoroSicuro certifications.
