Dr. Hochstrate Maschinenbau

Decades of experience

The industrial history of the Ennepe-Ruhr-Area is inextricably linked with the name Hochstrate as an entrepreneur and a supplier of machine components for coal mining.

Despite the fact that many companies went out of business after the decline of coal mining, the Dr. Hochstrate group managed to deal with a completely altered market situation and captured an important market segment in the sheet metal manufacturing industry.

About 40 years ago, we developed a modern hydraulic bending machine. Some years later we increased our range of machines by developing a full hydraulic plate shear.

Since then we have improved our machines continuously. In collaboration with local universities and colleges we increased and optimized the range of functions as well as the precision of our machines.

Our machines are setting new standards!
