Omec

What Omec does

Omec SRL is a privately held Italian industrial machinery manufacturer founded in 1964 and headquartered in Certaldo, in the province of Florence, Tuscany. The company designs and produces a focused range of CNC- and PLC-controlled woodworking machinery organized into seven product lines: milling machines (its flagship dovetail joinery franchise), automatic nailing machines, gluing machines, hot stamping presses, clamping machines, door-frame milling machines, and pendulum saws. These machines serve furniture and cabinet manufacturers producing drawers and cabinetry, light packaging producers of wooden wine, cigar, tool, and gift boxes, door frame manufacturers, and specialty woodworkers including beehive and gift-item producers. Technical specifications include multi-axis CNC control, touch-screen interfaces, Industry 4.0 compliance on selected models (e.g., BC-4), and throughputs ranging from 180 boxes/hour on the SBM1200 clamping machine to 1,000 pieces/hour on the F12 milling machine.

The business model is industrial hardware sales: Omec generates revenue by selling capital equipment directly to manufacturers and through an extensive global distributor network organized into Italian, European, and Extra-EU channels covering more than 25 countries across Europe, the Middle East, the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, and the firm maintains no disclosed aftermarket, subscription, or software revenue stream. The company is family-owned under founder Giuseppe Tinti, has 51-100 employees, is bootstrapped with no external investors or subsidiaries, and relies on international trade shows (IWF Atlanta 2024, Ligna Hannover 2025), a multilingual website with downloadable technical catalogs, and authorized dealer partners as its primary go-to-market channels. Nearly all manufacturing and design operations are retained in-house in Italy, supporting a Made-in-Italy quality positioning that has been cultivated over six decades.

Products and services

• Fresatrici (Milling Machines) CNC-controlled milling machines for creating dovetail joints and various joinery profiles on drawers, furniture, and wooden boxes. Models include 650 A, 650 M, 750 CN-C, F10, F11 TS, F12, F13S, and F14, serving applications from standard drawer assembly to specialized box production with channels, slots, and curved cuts.
• Chiodatrici (Nailing Machines) Automatic CNC nailing machines for assembling wooden box frames. BC 4 and BC 5 models feature multiple pneumatic nailing guns, motorized stops, and automatic clamping and nailing cycles for high-throughput frame production.
• Incollatrici (Gluing Machines) Gluing machines (ICM 300 and ICA 600) for applying adhesive to male and female dovetail joints, drawer bottoms, and fronts during drawer and box assembly, enabling quick and precise glue application.
• Stampatrici a caldo (Hot Stamping Presses) Hot stamping presses (SA 600) for branding, decorating, and applying logos or text onto wooden surfaces such as boxes, furniture, and gift items using heat-transfer foil.
• Strettoi (Clamping Machines) Clamping machines for assembling drawers and boxes. SBM 1200 is a manual hydraulic clamp for small boxes and wine crates; SCA 1200 is a 7-axis CNC automatic clamp for curved and straight drawers; SCM 1200 is a manual clamp for dovetail-joined drawers with five separate elements.
• Telai porte (Door Frames Milling Machines) F9 TS is a combined CNC milling machine specifically designed for creating parallel joints on door frames, featuring a milling unit, two saw units for 45-degree cuts, and an optional drilling unit for screw pilot holes.
