Known for over 40 years for our expertise in automatic nesting of complex shapes for cutting, we are a leading company in the field of software for sheet-metal working, cutting and robotics, and are well established worldwide. Since the very beginning, we have been designing and developing innovative solutions to optimize material consumption and machine production capacity. We have also contributed to the development of emerging technologies by closely working with machine tools manufacturers. Every year, more than 25 % of Alma’s turnover are reinvested in R&D. Alma offers the most comprehensive range of CAD/CAM software products and web applications for any type of cutting, sheet-metal working and mechanized welding. This includes in particular: 2D cutting, punching, routing, 5-axis cutting, robot cutting, tube and profile cutting, shearing, folding/unfolding, robot arc welding, etc. Our application software is marketed via a worldwide distribution network that includes country subsidiaries (Italy, Germany, China, Brazil, USA, Singapore), Value Added Resellers, integrators, partners, machine tools manufacturers or software publishers. While developing applicative software, we also sell our nesting algorithms in the form of “software components”. Both activities complement each other and benefit from our valuable technical expertise guaranteeing a complete control of our products, which enables us to better meet our customers’ needs. Alma is an independant group, enjoying continuous growth. We are pursuing an industrial strategy based on innovation, the development of an extended range for Industry 4.0, long-term cooperation with our partners and customers, and the commitment of all employees.
