Philosophy
After a moving 100-year history, today we are a leading technology partner on the global stage in the development of high-precision clutches, versatile linear drives, sensitive overload systems and optimised shaft couplings. We owe this success to our customers' demand for application-specific solutions with high complexity. Supporting their technological progress with innovations is the goal of our development work. For this, an increased exchange of ideas and intensive dialogue with our customers' engineers is key.
On top, we supply the right hardware. The detailed customer-specific solution logically leads to a wide variety of products, which can only be manufactured efficiently with flexible, state-of-the-art machinery. We do not automatically equate quality with technology, but rather see it as desire for perfection.
And it is the flexibility, inventiveness and dedication of our employees that put us up-front. Mönninghoff can only make it through today’s dramatic structural changes if everybody follows the company tradition of trying out new and unusual approaches.
