Success in Expansion

With a strong foothold in Italy , OMAL Automation expanded into the U . S . in 2020 and has continued its steady growth throughout the subsequent years . “ From the North American side of things , we are still an infant in terms of market penetration . However , we are growing ,” said Bonomi . “ We have been around as a company long enough to be stable and have a strong brand . We are well established in our processes and therefore have a wide range of offerings that newer companies may not necessarily have .”

“ Once the U . S . branch was established , we shifted all of our focus onto our customers and then , naturally , our products ,” he continued . OMAL has offerings in a variety of markets , including indus-

trial , food , chemical , pharmaceutical , power and energy , naval sectors , and more . “ Our commitment to improvement alongside our competence and professionalism is seen in our customfit products , services , and strong work ethic . We can guarantee quality and results in all our markets ,” said Bonomi .

Putting Quality First

OMAL Automation ’ s production process offers complete design solutions , die-casting , plastic molding , mechanical processing , assembly , and stress testing . This all-around service is completed during production to prove and demonstrate that the company upholds quality products above all else . “ We work with our customers , starting with the choice of raw materials all the way up to product

forming and product certification to ensure the highest quality . Our customers are aware that working in this direction , in close proximity with Omal , they can find a tailor-made solution in the general catalogue or through dedicated development . Both are manufactured in Omal Automation under one roof .”

“ People buy our products and there is a reason for that ,” relayed Bonomi . “ You are making an investment by purchasing that of higher quality . Customers get a reduced total cost of ownership , reduced maintenance costs , reduced downtime , and reduced risk from that downtime . We want to be the best value for high quality and ensure our products last . There are reasons why someone should go to a higher quality product like ours .”

One product that exemplifies their technological innovation is OMAL ’ s VIP EVO valve . The VIP EVO is an on / off coaxial valve and the foundation of OMAL ’ s flagship product , the VIP valve . VIP EVO has the same function of the VIP but increases the allowable pressure from 140 psi to 600 psi . The rotary pneumatic actuator and valve function are integrated in one single body . The axial piston for on-off operation is driven by the compressed air . Internal fluid dynamics of the media have been incorporated into the design to reduce turbulence and pressure loss . Added features such as easy mounting and comparative longevity of up to ten times that of a ball valve , as well as reduced operating costs of air consumption in comparison to other valve selections , make the VIP EVO a quality product that is paramount for optimized operations .
