O.M.F. srl

What O.M.F. srl does

O.M.F. srl (Oleodinamica Meccanica Fava) is an Italian private limited company founded in 1976 in Modena, operating a precision CNC machining job shop and a niche gear-reducer product line. From a single facility on Via Salvator Allende in Modena — the heart of Italy's Motor Valley — the company serves industrial customers with custom mechanical parts machined from die-cast and solid materials (aluminium, cast iron, steel, stainless steel, bronze, PVC) using horizontal, vertical, 5-axis CNC machining centers and CNC turning equipment. Quality control is performed in-house using a Poli Galaxy SC coordinate measuring machine (Renishaw T3+ control, CAPPS DMIS 7.7 software) and a range of precision gauges, while CAD-CAM design, in-house tooling assembly, and a 1,000 sqm logistics warehouse complete the vertically integrated offering.

The company operates two revenue streams: (1) one-off, quote-based CNC machining services for third parties (conto terzi), with engineering support from design through production across sectors including mechanical engineering, glass foundries, and processing machinery; and (2) the SERIE RB gearbox product family (RB1, RB6, RB7) sold directly to transit mixer OEMs for concrete truck applications, with continuous torque ratings from 850 to 2,050 daNm. Go-to-market is sales-led, relying on direct engagement with customer engineering and procurement teams, a bilingual (Italian/English) website, and long-term relationships rather than digital marketing.

The business is family-owned across three generations — founder Fava Franco, wife Anna, son Claudio, and three grandchildren in management, production, and quality control — with no external equity, parent company, or subsidiaries. In 2022 the company installed a 100 kWp photovoltaic system (co-financed by POR FESR Emilia Romagna 2014-2020) to lower energy costs on energy-intensive machining operations. Headcount is approximately 8; no revenue, funding, or certifications are publicly disclosed.

Revenue model

1. CNC Precision Machining Services: Job-shop manufacturing of custom mechanical parts for third parties using CNC machines. The company transforms raw materials and die-cast parts into finished precision components according to customer specifications and drawings. Revenue is generated through one-time project-based machining services with pricing based on complexity, materials, and production volumes.
2. RB Series Reducer Products: Manufacturing and sale of RB Series gear reducers for transit mixers (concrete trucks). Products include RB1, RB6, and RB7 models with different torque capacities. These are standard product lines with customization options for different mixer sizes.

Core offering

O.M.F. srl (Oleodinamica Meccanica Fava) is a Modena-based job shop providing CNC precision machining services — including horizontal, vertical, 5-axis milling and turning — for industrial customers, and manufactures its own RB series gear reducers designed for transit mixer applications. The company runs a vertically integrated operation spanning technical office design (CAD-CAM), in-house quality control with coordinate measuring machines, and managed logistics.

Product overview

O.M.F. srl is a precision machining and mechanical manufacturing company founded in 1976 in Modena, Italy. The company operates two main product lines: (1) SERIE RB gearboxes for transit mixers, available in three sizes (RB1, RB7, RB6) with torque ranges from 850 to 2050 daNm continuous; and (2) CNC precision machining services for die-cast and solid materials including aluminum, cast iron, steel, stainless steel, and bronze. The machining services are supported by an extensive machinery pool featuring horizontal 5-axis and vertical CNC machining centers, turning centers, and auxiliary equipment including measurement systems, welding, and hydraulic testing. The company also provides complementary technical office services (design, CAD-CAM), quality control/measurement services, and logistics management.
