Our History
For more than thirty years, Alfamacchine has provided the most advanced frame joining technology to the global picture framing and woodworking industries.
As the market leader, Alfamacchine has sold over 60,000 frame joining solutions comprising of Underpinner assembly machines, cutting machines, automation and its patented PowerTwist ®V-Nail Fastener technology plus Flexi Tabs and Hard Points.
Since the early 80s, when the first assemblers were built entirely by hand and the first saws were designed, the company has made great strides.
With the passage of time, Alfamacchine has dedicated it production and engineer resources to continue to provide the highest level of quality and sophistication needed for the continuing market changes required by the picture framing and woodworking industries.
In 1995, Alfamacchine introduced the M4E joining machine as it first high production Underpinner and was the beginning of automatic machinery sold into the industry. The M4E Underpinner provided the design platform to soon introduce Alfamacchine’s Memory Program and its patented Multi-Channel Underpinners that no competitor has ever been able to match.
High speed, repeatability, simplicity, and the ability to store framing profiles were essential elements for these machines meeting the needs of production type customers.
In 2005, Illinois Tool Works (ITW), a North American based company, purchased Alfamacchine and began to improve and expand the market share for the company products worldwide. During that period, Alfamacchine grew significantly in the picture framing and woodworking markets and today have a commanding share of their core markets.
In 2012, the Fletcher-Terry Company, headquartered in the United States, purchased Alfamacchine Company and today Alfamacchine is a major product brand under the Fletcher Business Group umbrella.
Products sold under the Alfamacchine brand include frame joining machinery, double mitre saws, framing points and tabs, and the company’s Power Twist™ V-Nail Technology.
