Marposs has become the world leader in measurement technology by offering its customers a combination of advanced products, market knowledge, and commitment to long term global partnerships. Building on these foundations, Marposs has created an international organization able to deliver application, design, and service support virtually anywhere in the world.
Marposs began in 1952 in Bologna, Italy, when Mario Possati launched a line of innovative new electronic measuring systems for grinders based on his patented concepts. As the 60's began, Marposs translated its success in Italy into an international presence in the highly competitive automotive and machine tool markets.
This represented the first of many strategic decisions based on Marposs' dedication to total involvement with customer's manufacturing process requirements. From the beginning, Marposs maintained a tight focus on the company's core competencies, and resisted the then-popular trend toward diversification.
Marposs' subsequent growth has been characterized by a strong commitment to research and development and close cooperation with customers in the automotive, machine tool, appliance, compressor, bearing, electric motors, aerospace, computer, and other industries. The experience gained in these long-term relationships have made Marposs an irreplaceable quality assurance partner for customers all over the world.
Today, Marposs is the global leader in measurement technology with products, application development, and after sales support delivering efficient, real time support for customer process control, measurement, and data management requirements.
