EPF was founded in 1961 in Carrù, a quaint town at the doorstep of the Langhe, and specializes in the fields of industrial automation, renewable energy and plastic injection molding on national and international scale as well. Over the years, EPF has expanded into three different business units, each operating in one of the sectors mentioned above and each made of highly specialized technicians.

EPF AUTOMATION, the original business unit, handles projects related to industrial automation, EPF ENERGY deals with the realization of renewable energy power plants and EPF PLASTIC provides plastic injection molding plants. Because of its strong involvement in the field of industrial technology, EPF has become the official distributor and service partner of Toshiba Machine, global leader for production of plastic injection molding machines.

The company is structured with an internal Electrical, Mechanical and Software Engineering Department. In addition, 5% of the staff works every day in collaboration with the main Italian and foreign Universities and Research Centers on the solutions of the future: Innovative Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Neural Networks, Vision Systems and Numerical Modeling.

These synergic and proactive collaborations led to the creation of innovative products and solutions which were then proposed on the market. The latest projects developed internally for the industrial automation part concern prototypes of systems with anthropomorphic and / or collaborative robots, associated with new applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning with vision systems for the food & packaging sector. The goal is to provide new technological solutions in response to the needs of a constantly evolving market.

The desire to build a future of technological progress, combined with the ability to remain faithfully linked to its history and values, has allowed EPF to engage in business on the international market.
