Samec industrial electric motors: quality and innovation made in Italy.

Samec was founded in 1975 as a manufacturer of small centrifugal electric pumps. Over time, the company evolved, specialized, and expanded its expertise to become a leading electric motor design company in Reggio Emilia, the heart of Italy's mechanical engineering industry.

Today, we focus on the design and construction of single-phase and three-phase industrial electric motors, while our electric pumps are selected and marketed through qualified partners. Since 2021, we have been collaborating with Next on the consulting, design, and supply of transmission systems and components, integrating our technical expertise and manufacturing capabilities to support manufacturers in creating reliable, high-performance solutions. Our identity is clear: reliable, customized solutions that are built to last.
