History of Franzen Maschinen
In 1895 Johannes I. found a forge. He invented the so called "Eifelhöhenpflug" (plough). These were sold until 1920.
In 1931 blacksmith Johannes II. continued the business. In 1947 Johannes III. enlarged the product range and produced trailers for agricultural businesses and shelf systems. After his death his son Johannes IV. took over the business, after successfully completing his engineering studies, in 1983. Encouraged by his studies he restructured the business. Already eight years after taking over he worked on a chain sharpener. Three patents followed. Today special-mechanical engineering is the main business of the company. Let´s see what Johannes V. has in mind...
