The company was founded in Sept-1942 by Mr. Salim Hanna as a small tool shop, whose activities has been driven by the needs of the local market for special tools and fixtures, not available in the country due the second world war.
The business started at the city of São Paulo, that by the time was a cradle to many enterprises for that very reason: traditional countries that supplied Brazil with manufactured goods, were involved in the war. From the start, the company dedicated to the manufacturing of tube expanders and lathe chucks.
During the fifties, with the installation of the first oil refineries
in Brazil, the company developed all the technology related to
tube expanders.
In the sixties, the automotive industry invested heavily in Brazil, and Hanna started the production of special tools dedicated to super-finish brake cylinders: the roller burnishing technology. By 1980, the company moves to the city of Limeira, 150 km from the state capital, São Paulo, where owns a 4,000 m² building on 10.000 m² of land.
