OptiVelox brand was founded in 2004 to develop innovative measurement instruments for the industrial automation sector.
After the initial period characterized by the production of tools dedicated primarily to non-contact measurement of displacements and speed,
the research and development of the company has been moving toward the field of energy conservation and renewable energy. In addition to that, part of the team is currently focusing on the development of apps and sensors for mobile devices.

The Optivelox instruments are characterized by the massive use of wireless technologies joined with professional sensor systems able to guarantee high performance with maximum operational flexibility.
The entire chain of production is located in Tuscany (Italy) and is organized in such a way as to allow a direct contact with the customer with the ability to make changes or customizations of a single product.
