Nuestro estudio analiza el desarrollo de la industria metalúrgica asociada a la moderna agroindustria azucarera en la provincia de Tucumán (principal epicentro productor de Argentina), indagando la dinámica establecida entre los ingenios y la red de talleres de fundición y acabado de piezas y maquinarias que surgieron motorizados por la actividad principal. Nuestra opción analítica se fundamenta en que la rama de la fundición y mecanizado fue la que incorporó el mayor nivel de tecnología dentro de la metalurgia local, además de representar el sector de mayor vinculación con la actividad azucarera como proveedora de insumos y maquinarias. Esta línea de análisis nos llevará a indagar sobre la participación de las empresas extranjeras como proveedoras de nueva tecnología, y avanzar sobre los procesos de imitación e innovación local en coyunturas adversas para el aprovisionamiento exterior de maquinaria.
This work examines the development of the metallurgical sector associated with modern sugar industry in Tucumán province (main production centre in Argentina). We analyze the dynamic between the sugar factories, the network of foundries and the mechanization of pieces and machinery. As sugar mechanized, forges and mills emerged to supply the increasingly mechanized sugar industrial sector. We hypothesize that metal casting and mechanical parts were the activities that incorporated the highest level of available technology. These activities were closely connected to the sugar industry because they supplied its inputs and machinery. We argue that foreign companies initially introduced new and innovative technology and helped advance the process of imitation and local innovation to supply foreign-made machinery, in particular during economic downturns.
