The history of Hengstler actually dates back over more than 150 years. At the beginning in 1846, the clock-maker Johannes Hengstler started the series production of gongs in the Swabian town of Aldingen in Germany.
In the course of the following decades the foundation was laid for the comprehensive experience Hengstler has today with the production of counters, printers, cutters, relays and encoders. Meanwhile controllers, length and angular measuring systems have expanded the product range. In 1995 Hengstler became a member of the US corporation Danaher in Washington, DC. Danaher Corporation regularly attains annual sales of several billion US dollars. Its main business segments also comprise tools and components, process and environmental controls, Hengstler being part of the latter business segment as a focused niche business. |
