Ourhistory
pening a window on Florence, the
Othought immediately goes to its
art and glorious past and, as if by
magic, a long list of famous characters
appears, Michelangelo, Giotto, Cellini,
Brunelleschi, and so on; however Leonardo,
taught us that Florence is not only a city of art
but also of creativity and talent that
contributed to progress and science and
therefore is recognised all over the world.

Ourhistory
Antonio Meucci who invented the telephone whose first idea dates back to 1849 and its patent to 1871.
Eugenio Barsanti, born in Pietrasanta but moved to Florence where, after his studies he became physics professor at the University of Florence and invented the combustion engine. The prototype was built in 1854 at the Officine Benini.

Guglielmo Righini Director of the Observatory of Arcetri, where, around the second half of the 1950s, under his direction the first radio telescope to listen to the sound of sunspots ex-plosions, was built.
Nello Carrara, born in Florence in 1900, studied at the Scuola Normale Superiore of Pisa, and graduated in phys-ics. One of his best friends was Enrico Fermi.
In 1936, he met the Engineer Tiberio and started with him the studies on a strange instrument called “localiser”, that later became famous as radar.
At that time he was teaching at the Naval Academy. Then war started, and apart from being a great tragedy for many people, it evidenced the perspicacity of the English people who developed the idea of the “localiser”, which revealed to be an extremely useful instrument to localise the ene-mies.
From right: Enrico Fermi, Nello Carrara, Rita Brunetti and Franco Rasetti in 1926 in Arcetri.
This is how the radarwas invented.
This is where ourstory begins.

P A S Q U A L I
After the war Nello Carrara, together with Lorenzo
Fernandes, started to transform the SMA, a small company
located on the Lungarni of Florence and that produced
shadow-free operating lamps and infrared detectors, in a
reality where electronics was more and more replacing the
other activities.
The first experiences were carried out with very little
money, the remnants of war of the ARAR vehicle parks, and
lots of creativity.
The first Italian radar was realised, it was 1953...

emo Pasquali, responsible of the
Rmechanic department, worked in this
company.
La Genesi dellanostra storia
The ARAR vehicle parks were located all over the
national territory and represented the “driving
force” for the reconstruction of the transport ser-
vices in Italy where, in the post war period there
were very few motor vehicles, at least until the na-
tional companies started operating again.

fter a few years, thanks to his
Aentrepreneurial talent, typical of
peop le f rom Vene to , Remo
Pasquali, left SMA and started his own
activity as external collaborator.
The “Officine Pasquali” company was
founded in 1958 in a garage, and the only
workers at the beginning were Remo Pasquali
and a trainee.

ven the company name Officine
EPasquali has changed into “Pasquali
Microwave Systems” and in place of
Remo Pasquali and a trainee, today there are
engineers and technicians that try to continue
the Founder’s philosophy:

ver the years the company has
Ogrown engaging in various
sectors, mainly the defence one
and the civil one oriented towards space and
radio astronomy products.
For the defence sector, Pasquali Microwave
Systems, supplies devices for the radar
systems developed by the most important
Italian and multinational companies in
different continents of the world.
A constant growth due to the close collabora-
tion in the relation with the clients.
For this reason, Pasquali Microwave Systems
is more and more involved in new high
technology challenges.

asquali Microwave Systems is also
Pinvolved in the realisation of compo-
nents and assemblies, even of its own
production, destined to the industry of the
sector that produces medical apparatuses,
refrigerating systems, and in the development
of new telecommunication technologies.

In the last years, Pasquali Microwaves
Systems has been engaged in the space
sector, specifically in the realisation of
radiofrequency components to be used at
cryogenic temperatures up to 4K.

part from the supplies in Italy, other
Aimportant orders have been
obtained for ESA (European Space
Agency) and the NASA JPLs (Jet Propulsion
Laboratories).
About twenty years ago, Pasquali Microwave
Systems founded and purchased respectively
“Galvanica Pasquali” and RTW “Ride the
Wave”, which takes care of EM design and RF
testing.
The close collaboration of these three compa-
nies allows obtaining important results
through the design, construction, and devel-
opment of radiofrequency components and
assemblies.
