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.
