Towards 2025: Piloni Srl accelerates its digitalization journey

2024 has proven to be a challenging year for the manufacturing industry. Geopolitical instability, inflation, shortage of skilled laborers, and growing sustainability demands have compelled companies to rethink their strategies.

In this complex market environment, Piloni Srl has chosen to transform obstacles into opportunities by investing in technological innovation and focusing on continuous improvement. Since 1925, this Italy-based company has been a benchmark in the fasteners sector, offering a wide range of custom-designed products, including solid, semi-tubular and bifurcated rivets, multi-diameter pins, knurled, threaded, and grooved components, available in sizes ranging from 2 x 4 mm to 14 x 165 mm.

Here’s how, building on its ongoing digitalization efforts, the company is set to further solidify its market position in 2025.

Digitalization of production

Among the key initiatives undertaken this year is the digitalization of production, which will continue to evolve into 2025. To date, Piloni Srl has connected nearly all machines in its production department. This crucial step allows for more precise monitoring of production times and costs, aligning with Piloni’s continuous improvement strategy. By embracing digitalization, the company is well-equipped to meet the challenges of a market where average order batch sizes are steadily decreasing.

Efficiency and innovation as priorities

The shift toward smaller order quantities and the evolving customer demands require a quick and flexible response. Thus, optimizing production efficiency becomes essential to maintain long-term competitiveness and sustainability. The company is committed to consolidating its position as a leader in the cold-forged metal components sector, by embracing innovation and addressing the requirements of this ever-changing market.

A look to the future

As it approaches its hundredth anniversary, Piloni Srl continues to focus on the future. Ongoing investments reflect a strategic vision that balances tradition and innovation, delivering reliable and high-quality solutions.
