History and Mission
Since 1988 we have designed and built special automatic machines in several application sectors. Our structure is based on the experience of our technicians and allows us to offer a valid and reliable product, and a very efficient after-sale service. Founded as an engineering study, L.C.M. PROGETTI has developed a production department for the manufacturing of the machineries we design.
At the beginning the production was mainly concerned with the manufacturing of assembly lines commissioned by our costumers. Some innovative products, totally developed by LCM, like our Scara Robot with 4 controlled axis, were used in the production and assembly lines engineered in those years.

At the beginning of the new millennium the company's mission changed, meeting the new customer's desires. Complete testing lines and dedicated machineries to test the products are developed (e.g. NDT Pressure test for welded parts, electrical insulation and rigidity, vision checks...). The production of automatic machines for welding was more and more empowered, with welding robots, gantries and automatic welding benches, with the most innovative welding technologies such as Plasma.
As a further change, the our core business became the production of metal working machines to improve the quality in our customer's production.
