In gear manufacturing, precision doesn’t come by chance: it’s the result of a process where engineering and production must speak the same language.
At Cattini, this synergy is not just encouraged: it’s embedded in the company’s DNA. The result? Gears that are not only technically perfect, but built to perform exactly as intended, in real-life conditions.
From drawing board to production floor
It all starts in the technical department, where Cattini’s engineers translate a set of performance targets, torque, rotation speed, load cycles, noise levels, into a fully defined geometry. But the real advantage comes later, when that design moves from screen to machine.
Because Cattini controls the entire process internally, engineers and machine operators work side by side, turning 3D models into physical parts without losing a single detail. Adjustments are immediate, dialogue is constant, and optimizations happen in real time.
This short loop between design and execution means fewer delays, better risk management, and faster turnaround, especially for custom projects and prototypes.
Real-life performance, not just theory
A gear is more than a geometry: it’s a system that will be subject to thermal expansion, lubrication variability, material fatigue, micro-vibrations. Cattini knows this, which is why every gear design is tested with both simulation tools and practical experience.
Operators on the production floor know how a steel reacts to heat, how a surface finish changes behavior, and how a tooth profile behaves under long-term stress. That feedback loops directly into engineering, closing the gap between theory and field performance.
Co-design with the customer
This internal alignment allows Cattini to be an ideal partner for co-design. Many of the company’s clients don’t just order a gear, they bring a challenge: “we need to fit this performance into this much space”, or “we need to reduce noise at a specific speed range”.
Thanks to the direct connection between design, machining, heat treatment, and testing, Cattini responds quickly: not only with a drawing, but with a functioning prototype. And not only with a prototype, but with a gear ready for industrialization.
A system built for precision
From the first CAD file to the final QC report, every step in Cattini’s process is designed to maintain control, flexibility, and repeatability. This is what makes the company reliable for small batches, large series, and everything in between.
It’s not just a gear, it’s a product of engineering discipline, manufacturing expertise, and constant internal dialogue.
