What TMV does

TMV Srl a socio unico is an Italian private limited company founded in the 1970s by two brothers, headquartered and operating from a single 150 sqm facility in Gardone Val Trompia, Brescia (Lombardy). The firm specializes in the design, in-house construction, and maintenance of metal forming molds, together with sheet metal stamping and related mechanical processing for B2B customers. Its core technology stack comprises 3- and 4-axis vertical CNC machining centers with pallet changers, a 4-axis horizontal CNC machining center, wire electro-discharge machining, mechanical presses ranging from 50 to 200 tons, and dedicated fine blanking presses of 160 and 250 tons. Quality control is supported by an internal metrology department equipped with ZEISS coordinate measuring machines, OGP and KEYENCE 2D optical measurement systems, and a KEYENCE high-resolution 3D digital microscope.

TMV's product offering is organized around mold construction (using high-speed steel, super high-speed steel, and powder steel) and a suite of forming services: traditional blanking, fine blanking (precision blanking with tight tolerances and superior surface finishes), sheet metal bending, deep drawing, coining, and assembly of finished parts from customer drawings. Materials processed include steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, brass, and iron. Differentiated capabilities include co-design for optimized part performance, a full in-house process chain from milling through heat treatment, grinding, wire EDM, assembly, and testing, plus long-held UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 (20+ years), UNI EN ISO 14001:2015, CRIBIS Prime Company, and Synesgy ESG certifications.

The business model is project-based custom manufacturing priced per quote, with customers contacting the firm directly via phone or email. TMV sells to enterprise customers across multiple verticals, with automotive identified as the primary segment and additional served industries including watchmaking/horology, security, electro-mechanical, and textile/meccanotessile. Revenue is generated through one-off and series production contracts (multi-year), with no public pricing, no digital channel beyond a bilingual corporate website, and no disclosed revenue or external funding. Ownership is concentrated within the founding family (single-member Srl structure, €30,000 share capital).

Products and services

• Traditional Blanking (Tranciatura Tradizionale) Traditional metal sheet blanking and cutting service where moulds produced by TMV are installed on TMV presses. Produces parts whose intended use does not require specific precision levels. Suitable for industrial applications across automotive and other sectors.
• Fine Blanking (Tranciatura Fine) Precision metal sheet blanking service that produces parts with reduced tolerances and superior surface finishes compared to traditional blanking. Achieves cost and time savings compared to milling processes. Critical for automotive and other precision-demanding sectors such as watchmaking, security, and electro-mechanical applications.
• Metal Sheet Bending and Deep Drawing (Piegatura e Imbutitura) Metal sheet bending process that permanently deforms metal sheet or steel into three-dimensional shapes. Includes deep drawing (imbutitura) that transforms flat metal sheet into concave, box, or cylindrical shapes. Used in series production of customer-designed components.
• Coining (Coniatura) Metalworking process that thins metal sheet in specific areas to create thickness variations and ribs, providing higher rigidity and resistance to elastic deformations. Used to reinforce stamped parts without adding material.
• Mould Design, Construction, and Maintenance (Costruzione Stampi) Complete in-house mould (tooling) design, construction, and maintenance service including milling, heat treatment, grinding, wire erosion, assembly, and testing. Moulds are manufactured with high-speed steel, super high-speed steel, and powder steel. Includes pre-series sampling (campionatura) and co-design consultation for optimized part performance and economics.
• Mechanical Processing (Lavorazioni Meccaniche) Precision metalworking service including milling, drilling, threading, blanking, fine blanking, bending, stamping, and coining on various metals including steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, brass, and iron. Performed on CNC machinery and mechanical presses in TMV's Gardone Val Trompia facility.
• Metrology and Quality Control Services Internal metrology and quality control service using OGP and KEYENCE 2D optical measurement systems, ZEISS contact coordinate measuring machines, and KEYENCE high-resolution 3D digital microscopes. Provides process control and final product verification across the entire production cycle.
• Assembled Parts Production (Pezzi Assemblati) Production of assembled metal parts across various sectors including automotive, clockwork/watchmaking, security, electro-mechanical, textile, and general manufacturing. Involves assembly of stamped, blanked, bent, and machined sub-components into finished products.
