Sacma
FMS Lines and PALLETECH automation
SACMA is one of a few within its own sector of expertise that produces all the mechanical parts it needs internally. Compared to the many other manufacturers that have decided to outsource production outside Italy, for purely economic reasons, SACMA has differentiated itself. As a result, the company has been able to further strengthen its internal processes, confirming its strategy of maintaining a 100% made-in-Italy production cycle.
In order for this strategy to be successful and competitive, SACMA must be continuously supported by production technologies of absolute excellence, which are efficient, reliable and high-performance.
This mantra has been echoed by the founder, Valeriano Rampezzotti, followed by his son Giancarlo, in addition to the current president (also named Valeriano), who collectively span more than 80 years of history, have opened 5 production sites covering 60,000 square meters of operating area, hired 270 employees and achieved 75 million euros in turnover.
SACMA, thanks to a very important machine park which includes a total of almost 40 Mazak machines, internally produces all the mechanical components necessary for its machines for the world of fasteners and production lines.

On International Day of Women and Girls in Science we put the spotlight on Jas Cordelle, a Mazak Apprentice now making her mark in our Spindle Service Centre and on the racetrack.
Yamazaki Mazak’s apprenticeship programme has grown dramatically over the last decade with the company currently putting more than 60 apprentices through training.
One of Mazak’s priorities with its apprentice scheme is encouraging more women into engineering, and one of the early success stories is Jas (short for Jasmine) Cordelle, who joined the company nearly 10 years ago.
“I didn’t really like exams at school because I learn better from physically doing something rather than studying,” explains Jas. “I’d always been around engineering because my dad is a design engineer and I have been involved in drag bike racing from the age of 10, so I was probably predisposed towards engineering as a career.”
