When we are brought in
Every solution is built where the market has no suitable machine. Oil & Gas companies bring us in when:
- a new production process needs a dedicated machine;
- complex machining calls for a machining centre designed around the part;
- a manual, repetitive or safety-critical stage has to be automated;
- heavy components have to be tested, lifted or turned over safely.
The DIMOTION division supports you from process analysis to the installed machine: mechanical and electrical design, PLC software, construction, installation and testing.

- AnalysisWe gather the requirements and analyse the process, identifying the critical stage.
- ConceptWe propose a rapid concept and check its technical and economic feasibility.
- DesignMechanical and electrical design, with structural and kinematic analysis.
- PLC softwareControl logic, PLC and operator interfaces developed in house.
- Construction and testingConstruction, assembly and testing in our own workshop.
- Into productionInstallation and acceptance testing at your site, documentation and optimisation.
What we do for Oil & Gas
- Machines for new processesCustom machines for new production processes.
- 5-axis machining centresCustom 5-axis machining centres, designed around the part to be machined.
- Robotic automationRobotic systems for manual, repetitive or safety-critical stages.
- Component treatmentAutomatic machines for treating components.
- Heavy componentsTest benches and lifting and turnover equipment for heavy components.
- DocumentationTechnical documentation and CE marking, with ATEX design where the environment requires it.
Safety and compliance
We prepare the documentation for CE marking: risk assessment, technical file, manuals and declaration of conformity. Where the environment requires it, we design to ATEX.
Today the reference is the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. From 20 January 2027 the new Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 applies, introducing new requirements, including on software and control systems: we help you understand what changes for machines that will go into service after that date.
Frequently asked questions
-
Do you design machines for processes no catalogue machine covers?
Yes: every solution is built where the market has no suitable machine, designed around the part and the process.
-
Do you build custom 5-axis machining centres?
Yes: we design and build custom 5-axis machining centres for complex machining.
-
Can you automate manual or hazardous stages?
Yes: with robotic systems we replace manual, repetitive or safety-critical stages.
-
Are installation and acceptance testing included?
In complete supplies, yes: installation and acceptance testing at the client’s site are always included.
-
Do you sign a non-disclosure agreement?
Yes, we sign a non-disclosure agreement before going into the details of the project.
-
Do you work with companies outside Tuscany?
Yes: from our site in Navacchio, near Pisa, we work with companies in Tuscany, across Italy and abroad.
