Omlat

Everything starts with an idea.

Salvatore Munnia was born in Switzerland 1911.
Moved to Italy in young age, Salvatore began his work experience as a simple worker in the high precision mechanical industry.
In 1940, at the beginning of World War II, his strong entrepreneurial spirit, helps him to establish the OMLAT as a small mechanical reality located in Turin.
Starting with only one lathe and a grinding machine begins for OMLAT the era of spindles for machine tools, achieving step by step more and more prestige in this field, first on a national level, then worldwide.

The evolution of success.

The increasing demand of spindles by machine tools manufacturers,  leads Omlat to incorporate into its structure a new assembly department, where could be carried out assembly operations in series.
The Omlat assembly is structured on product lines basis: therefore on one hand products with smaller size and weight, such as spindles for wood or aluminum and on the other side those for the metal sector, spindles for heavy milling works.
