OSAI, a company specialized in numerical control since 1957, started within the machine tool division of Olivetti and gradually expanded its activity into the international market.
Over time, the group created closer links with Allen Bradley/Rockwell, the American leader in industrial automation, until it became a part of the Rockwell Group and changed its name and logo into Rockwell. In 1997 OSAI split from Rockwell and returned to being an independent company, specialized in numerical control and automation systems.
OSAI Continued to build on the previous success, with steady growth over the next ten years. In 2007 OSAI was acquired by the major Italian electronics manufacturer PRIMA ELECTRO S.p.A. and has now become one of the major worldwide CNC and automation system providers.
