History
Overview

OFFICINE PASQUALI

Founded by Remo Pasquali, Officine Pasquali started as precision mechanics workshop for Industry and Machining sector. Gruppo Pasquali is actually at the 4th generation of owners and workers.

MICROWAVE FOR DEFENCE AND CIVIL

Fastly moving from mechanics to microwave applications, Officine Pasquali became main supplier for leading Italian industries in CIVIL and DEFENCE sectors (Galileo, SELEX, SMA and so on).

  • Officine Pasquali founded GALVANICA PASQUALI (dedicated Surface Treatments company).

SCIENCE PROGRAMS FOR AEROSPACE

Officine Pasquali was one of the first companies in the world to design, engineer and manufacture Calibration Targets for Satellite and Deep Space applications. Aerospace Applications Heritage did began with stable cooperation with Universities and Research Centers.

MICROWAVE SYSTEMS FOR AEROSPACE

Officine Pasquali growth up to a leading worldwide company in Aerospace sector for its On-Board and On-Ground instrumentation design and manufacturing:

  • Officine Pasquali is part of ESA and NASA PLANK and MetOP-SG Satellites Programs.

PASQUALI MICROWAVE SYSTEMS

Officine Pasquali became Pasquali Microwave System to scale-up as engineering high-tech level company
by increasing production and know-how with specialized personnel.

  • DEFENCE and CIVIL strengthened by National Contracts Supplying (Italy and EU).
  • Acquisition of Ride The Wave (RTW), formerly a spin-off of University of Pisa in RF and TLC Systems.

COMPOSITE MATERIALS

Pasquali Microwave Systems completes its offer of full-in-house solutions with:

  • Acquisition of Vega Composites, manufacturer of structures in carbon-fiber, glass-fiber, kevlar and metal parts (special steel, titanium, aluminum alloys).
  • Foundation of Pasquali Microwave USA as stable presence in USA market.
