History
Midmark, formerly The Cummings Machine Company, was founded in 1915., manufacturing cement mixers. In 1918 Cummings bought the Reeves Pulley Company's engine business. In 1921 the company expanded its product line to mining locomotives, foundry equipment and custom metal fabrications, and became the Industrial Equipment Company. John Eiting was the first member of the Eiting family to hold a leadership position, being named president in 1925. John's son Carl Eiting joined the company in 1930 and became president in 1953. The company continued manufacturing mining and foundry equipment, then highway toll booths, electrical control consoles and the first pressure ladle for the ductile and modular iron industries.
1950s - 1970s: Carl's son, Jim Eiting, joined the company in 1956, developing a new strategy which led Midmark into the medical industry, and in 1968 the company acquired the medical examination table product line of American Metal Furniture Company. The company was then renamed IE Industries for "innovative engineering." It also introduced the world's only solid frame, hydrostatic trencher, used for cutting ditches for utility underground lines and general construction. These new product lines resulted in the creation of three product divisions: Midmark Medical, Midmark Power (trencher) and Midmark Steel (mining equipment and custom manufacturing). In 1978, IE Industries became Midmark Corporation.
1980s - 1990s: Midmark purchased the Ritter line of medical equipment from Sybron in 1986, then designed and developed casework and sterilizers for the medical and dental markets. It acquired Knight Manufacturing, Inc. in Asheville, North Carolina, expanding its product offerings in the dental market. As part of a global initiative, Midmark purchased the French holding company, Arteme and its subsidiaries, Promotal and Beaumond, located in Ernee, France, in 1998.
2000-present: In 2000, Jim Eiting's daughter, Dr. Anne Eiting Klamar, who was practicing medicine at Family Practice Physicians in Urbana, Ohio, joined Midmark and is the company's current president and CEO. Upon her appointment as president, Midmark made several acquisitions to broaden each of its markets:
Brentwood Medical Products, Torrance, California - digital diagnostic products
Apollo Dental Products, Clovis, California - air compressors and evacuation systems for the dental market
Matrx, Orchard Park, New York - air compressors and evacuation systems for dental and veterinary medicine

Sharn Veterinary, Inc., Tampa, Florida - monitoring and critical care equipment for animal healthcare under the Cardell, CardEx and Versaflo brands
Progeny, Inc., Lincolnshire, Illinois - radiographic imaging products for human and animal dental markets
In 2010, Midmark acquired the majority equity position in Janak Healthcare Private Limited, a healthcare equipment company based in Mumbai, India. It also partnered with Mortara Instrument in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, adding new products to its line of diagnostic devices.
Newmed, S.r.L, Quattro Castella, Italy- tabletop sterilization products and accessories for the medical, dental and animal health markets.
