Overview

The foundations were laid over 100 years ago: In the small mill belonging to the Stephan family in the 1890s, everything already centered around the perfect drive system. And that is how it has remained – though we have of course grown in the meantime.

Today we offer a wide range of products in the area of gear units, geared motors and fluid couplings. This enables us to offer our customers tailored solutions at any time, from the standard gear unit, through products adapted for specific applications to custom-made gear units.
