OUR HYSTORY
For concrete will and great devotion of Cucchetti family and with the involvement of Torielli family, ORMAC was originally founded in 1951 as a mechanical workshop for the reparation of the already existing footwear machines, which at that time were mostly of imported foreign construction.
Very soon, from the simple reparation, ORMAC passed to new projects and to manufacture new machines, mainly devoted to the assembling footwear department.
In 1959 the considerable experience gained allowed the realization of its pulling over machine by tacks mod. 73 remained in the further times the only machine built in Italy for such a work.
But it is 1964 the year that represents the concrete historical Company turning-point.
In fact it has been realized the original and exclusive heel seat lasting machine by tacks at changeable pace mod. 740 that will be universally identified with the name of "CALZERINA". Such technology remained for long time the most important innovation in those years of shoe manufacturing boom. Above all, thanks mostly to this realization, the production and the structure of the Company grew significantly and allowed ORMAC to position itself more and more widely in all the footwear areas and allowed the creation of an adequate network of distribution and after-sales service.
In the year 1966 ORMAC introduced its first pulling over and toe lasting machine mod. 730.
In 1973 the growing production necessities of the international customers, induced ORMAC to realize the innovative hydraulic heel seat lasting machine by tacks in only one stroke called mod. 750, that became a legend in the sector and at the same time an icon of technique, subject of many attempts of imitation without success. This excellent technology, in its natural technological evolutions, is still inserted into production' series, demonstrating the extreme quality and reliability during the years.
At the beginning of the years '80s ORMAC realized its first heel seat and side lasting machine by tacks and thermo/cement identified with the name of mod. ASHL-T. Very soon it became one of the most admired technologies worldwide. Subsequently, this realization became the basic technical reference for the development of all the versions of heel seat/side and ball-waist lasting machines mod. 795, the widest and prestigious range of technologies that are still produced today and also recognized as the most powerful in the footwear machinery worldwide.
The years '90s finally consecrated ORMAC as a leading Company thanks to the introduction on the market of other advanced technologies for the footwear lasting department, still successfully produced, such as the heel seat and side lasting machine by tacks mod. ROLLER and the revolutionary range of pulling over and toe lasting machines mod. CHALLENGER. Since the beginning this machine is proposed with the revolutionary system of cementing by Patented Universal Injector. Starting from the early years of the third millennium it is proposed with more advanced and performing solutions, such as cementing by programmable total independent tracers.
For the high technical contents, for the simplicity and for the versatility of use, these technologies are still abundantly and with good reason, approved and awarded by the most demanding footwear international customers.
In the same historical period, ORMAC carried out also its own range of programmable computerized machines for the bottom working of lasted shoes, (pounding, roughing and cementing automatic machines) to complete the line of machines for the lasting department traditionally proposed.
In the year 2002 ORMAC obtained from the International Authority DNV, the important and coveted recognition of the quality certification "UNI EN ISO 9001/2008" still claimed as guarantee of total quality of their machines, and for the benefit of the customers from all over the world.
The contemporary history sees ORMAC - still managed and lead with rigorous engagement by the founding families together with their valiant collaborators - more and more involved in the research and development of innovative technological solutions, both for the footwear industry as well for its precious artisanship of very high quality.
Over 60 years of experience devoted to the service of the footwear producers returns to ORMAC an image of absolute credibility and arises as a real world reference in its sector for the constant seriousness as well for the contents of the many advanced technologies proposed, all strictly certified and proudly guaranteed 100% MADE IN ITALY.
