PRUFTECHNIK on its way to market leadership
The beginnings
Dieter Busch founded PRUFTECHNIK as a sales company in 1972, supplying monitoring devices to industrial manufacturing companies. Against a backdrop of significant technical advances, the sales program was rapidly expanded and PRUFTECHNIK evolved from a sales company into a business with its own development and production.
The breakthrough
1984: Introduction of the first laser shaft alignment system OPTALIGN. A big success with an incredible impact on the evolution of PRUFTECHNIK.
Since then, PRUFTECHNIK has had the undisputed leading position in the market of laser optical alignment systems. This competitive advantage has allowed PRUFTECHNIK to become THE worldwide specialist in the ever-growing area of industrial maintenance.
The development
After the success of OPTALIGN, PRUFTECHNIK has consistently developed its product portfolio, gained new markets and started international operations in the following years.
Breaking into the new century
The continuous development of successful products and the introduction of new innovative products have paved the way into the 21st century. The smooth transition to the second generation of the family business has set the course for the future and promises continuity.
