What Rima does
Rima S.p.A. is an independent Italian industrial group founded in 1972 and headquartered in Montichiari (Brescia), Italy, that designs, manufactures, and tests custom mechanical and hydraulic components for OEM machinery builders. Its product portfolio centres on six categories: parking jacks (mechanical and hydraulic stabilizers), hydraulic cylinders (double-acting, telescopic, sensor-equipped, braking, and lightened variants), ballbearing turntables, slewing rings (300-1800 mm diameter), steel wheels for tillage, and steering drawbars, supplemented by a catalogue of over 13,000 agricultural spare parts and a 2024-launched e-Power Technology line of electrified cylinders and actuators. The group operates three companies (Rima S.p.A., Sirca SA for slewing rings, and Rima UK) with 51-100 employees and vertically integrated production covering laser cutting, CNC machining, robotic welding (90% of welding on robotic islands), multi-stage industrial washing, assembly, surface treatment, and testing at pressures up to 300 bar and salt spray exposure up to 1500 hours.
Rima serves OEM customers exclusively through a direct enterprise field-sales model, with field-based sales engineers, a dedicated internal design department that simulates application-specific stresses, and co-design/sampling/testing support. Customers are major European machinery manufacturers across five verticals: agriculture (tractors, trailers, sprayers, seeders, harvesters), construction and earthmoving (excavators, concrete pumps, cranes), green economy and ecology (waste compactors, street sweepers, solar trackers, wind turbines), logistics (forklifts, trailers, snow groomers, salt spreaders), and lifting equipment (aerial platforms, truck-mounted cranes). Pricing is negotiated per project under Sales Order Confirmations and is not publicly disclosed.
The company holds two registered patents (Depth Control® harrow depth regulation, 2016; Hydraulic Steering Drawbar, 2018) and maintains certifications including ISO 9001, ISO 15614 welding procedure qualification, ISO 1461 hot-dip galvanizing, EU 167/2013 Mother Regulation compliance for agricultural towing equipment, Machinery Directive 2006/42/CE compliance, and UNI/PdR 125:2022 gender equality certification. Marketing is conducted primarily through international trade shows such as EIMA International and Enovitis in Campo, supplemented by direct field-based technical consultancy.

Broad incumbents
- HAWE Hydraulik: German-headquartered supplier of hydraulic components (valves, pumps, cylinders, electronics) for mobile and industrial hydraulics. Larger incumbent offering broader hydraulic system portfolios than Rima but overlapping substantially in OEM hydraulic cylinder supply.
- Bonfiglioli: Italian-headquartered manufacturer of gearboxes, drive systems, and slewing drives for industrial and mobile applications. Comparable in mechanical power transmission components and in serving European OEMs across lifting, construction, and renewable-energy machinery.
- Liebherr-Components: Component division of the Liebherr Group, manufacturing slewing rings, hydraulic cylinders, gearboxes, and electric machines. Overlaps directly with Rima in slewing rings and hydraulic cylinders for construction and heavy machinery, though serving a much wider product portfolio.
Emerging players
- Lazzari S.r.l. Italian manufacturer of parking jacks, stabilizers, and mechanical components for trailers and mobile equipment. Smaller geographic and product overlap with Rima, but directly comparable in parking jacks and stabilizers for the European trailer and agricultural OEM market.
