TIMELINE
OMSAF FOUNDED
Omsaf was founded in Nozza di Vestone (BS) thanks to the entrepreneurial spirit of Romeo Facchetti
FIRST FACTORY MOVED TO CASTO (BS)
Omsaf moves into its first 1,500 square metre factory in Casto (BS), installing new machinery
FACTORY EXPANSION
Due to increased market demand, it became necessary to expand the factory with an additional 500 square metres by building new planning, administration and technical-sales offices next to the production site, while steadily increasing the workforce and machinery
ISO 9001 CERTIFICATION
ISO 9001 certification is attained through the desire to demonstrate the capability of the company’s quality management system.
ENTRY OF THE SECOND GENERATION
Omsaf changes corporate structure to become fully owned by the Facchetti family: founder Romeo is joined by daughters Luisa and Mara
SPECIAL MECHANICAL MACHINING
In addition to mould and die production, Omsaf specialises in the machining of small batches of parts/prototypes with high-performance multi-pallet milling machines
SIMULATION SOFTWARE
From the development of PiQ2 with the University of Brescia, Omsaf emerges as the precursor of this innovative design support.
ACQUISITION OF THE NEW SHED
Omsaf acquired the neighbouring shed, connecting the two units. It now has a space of over 4,000 square metres, a new 35-tonne crane and other significant machinery, and is ready to enter a market with substantial dimensional requirements
EXPANSION OF PRODUCTION AREA
Years of renovation and improvement with the purchase of a major 8-axis drilling machine with rotary table, a new sinker EDM, a high-performance multi-pallet milling machine, an outstanding new multi-function lathe and other machinery
PURCHASE OF MILLING MACHINE WITH LARGE STROKES
With the addition of the new 5-axis high-speed gantry finishing milling machine with 3500 x 3000 x 2000 strokes, Omsaf is able to give a more qualitative and quantitative response to its customers
