For over 45 years, Alma has established itself as the premier expert in automatic nesting for complex shapes in cutting applications. As a leader in CAD/CAM software for sheet metal, cutting, and robotics, Alma continues to expand globally, with a presence in 8 countries and a robust distribution network.
The only company on the market that is independent and 100% Employee-Owned. It makes all the difference! A more sustainable company. More committed employees. Honest, lasting relationships.
At the core of Alma are tech masterminds and brilliant developers fueling innovation. Unlike other market players, we develop all our technologies ourselves. We have the expertise. We master it, we develop it.
Tech is great, but real expertise is also human. Count on our teams for the support you need, when you need it. A personalized human relationship, not a chat bot. We’ve got your back!
At Alma, our culture is the heartbeat of who we are. As a cooperative organization, it shapes our identity and drives how we connect with the world. It’s woven into everything we do—from the innovative products and services we deliver to the way we collaborate, thrive, and celebrate every day.
At the origin in 1979, Alma was born with the project to create nesting algorithms to reduce raw material waste in cutting processes for textiles and sheet steel. Since then, we’ve grown with an open mind and a fresh perspective, mastering high-level mathematical tools and developing cutting-edge technological solutions to meet industrial challenges.
Each year, we invest 25% of our revenue into R&D. Working closely with machine tool and robotic system manufacturers, we are creating innovative software solutions that optimize material usage and maximize the potential of machines and robots.
Built on expertise, designed for results, our solutions meet the needs of industrial subcontractors and companies, machine tool manufacturers, software developers and integrators.
We offer the most comprehensive range of CAD/CAM software for cutting, sheet metal processing, and mechanical welding, including fluid jet cutting, punching, milling/routing, 5-axis cutting, robotic cutting, tube cutting (circular and oblong), folding/unfolding, robotic arc welding, and more.
We are an independant, prosperous and solid group, looking to the future.
Over 100 team members within our group drive the CAD/CAM Software division, from development to sales.
Our software is distributed globally through a distribution network of subsidiaries and agencies in France, Italy, Germany, Spain, China, Brazil, the USA, and Singapore, alongside dedicated resellers, integrators, and partners, including machine tool manufacturers and software developers.
The company’s cooperative structure greatly influences our corporate culture, which is built on values shared by all employees: empowerment, solidarity, mutual trust, collaborative decision-making and result-sharing, a commitment to excellence, and a strong focus on the quality of our customer relationships.
We deliver high level support and services to help you get ahead and expand.
