MECTRA SAIMP SRL: PRESENTATION The company was founded in 1904 with the name SAIMP (Società Azionaria Industrie Meccaniche Padovane). Its mission, that is the explanatory expression of the brand, is precision mechanics. Leaving aside the activity of the first half of the last century, we move on to describe the period of the Second World War, a period that concerns the production site in Via Pontevigodarzere in Padua: Since the 1950s and until the 1960s, SAIMP has been known as a manufacturer of cantilever milling machines and parallel lathes which have constituted the evolution of the pre-existing company refounded in the 1920s. SAIMP, acquired in 1968 by IRI, is deeply restructured. Thus two product lines were launched, one for milling and the other for grinding, the latter product aimed at the then very strong growth of the automotive sector. In the mid-70s the company's technology expands on the one hand towards highly sophisticated machinery and on the other, entering the aeronautical sector with numerically controlled profiling machines; is the most significant expansion. In 1982 the majority stake of SAIMP was transferred to Ansaldo SpA and a project was prepared to include the company in the field of factory automation, developed and implemented in the following years To meet the different needs of the world market, SAIMP in 1999 merges with PAMA SpA of Rovereto (TN) giving life to PAMA SAIMP SPA and two product lines are defined: boring milling and grinding which continues to be produced in the “historic” SAIMP factory in Via Pontevigodarzere in Padua. In 2001 the sale of the grinding line takes place Since 01 December 2002, the "SAIMP" brand products, machining centers and boring mills have been attributed to the company "MECTRA SAIMP SRL" of Luigi Adriano Marangon, an important entrepreneur in the machine tool sector in the Padua area, owner of the company of the same name " LUIGI MARANGON SRL " Since 2007," MECTRA SAIMP SRL "together with the company" LUIGI MARANGON SRL "have moved integrated into the new 4500 m2 production site in Campodarsego (PD) in Via Caltana, 120, in order to synergistically exploit the respective knowledge in the field of machine tools The company has a technical office, workshop for mechanical processing, workshop for assembly, metrology room and specialized personnel for technical assistance.
