A Journey through 75 Years of History 1945 to 1964 – The years of new beginnings Immediately after the Second World War, Dipl.-Ing. Wilhelm Winter founded the company "Winter 1945 1950 1955 1960 Maschinenbau" in 1945, initially as an engineering office in his home at Homberger Straße 32. One year later, in 1946, the company set up its own production and assembly in the barn of the 1947 farmer Michels at the Pfingsberg/corner of Hom- Hydraulic cylin- berger Straße.

The Cuto 20 is still 1965 1970 1975 1980 1985 in production today. The range of wet cutting machines was expanded in the following decades with new types (Cuto 35, WetCut 55 and most recently WetCut 110). 1966 1973 1985 1966 saw the development and delivery of the Delivery of the first Delivery of the first fully auto- Start of delivery of antenna rotors first trimming machine for radiator sheets for trimming machine mated production line for the for FlaRak PATRIOT - Hawk project, radiator production.

A look into the future Climate protection and sustainability The aspects of sustainability and life- time cycle have always been anchored in our company policy. In all machines and systems, components of different materials are screwed together and enable both simple repair and recy- Dechenstraße 1 Dechenstraße 3 Dechenstraße 3a Dechenstraße 5 cling of separate materials. Modernisation of older systems is thus possible even after several decades by replacing control and drive components as well as wearing parts. For example, after more than 20 years of operation, the antenna positioners of the German Federal Network Agency and the German Federal Armed Forces (PATRIOT) were thoroughly overhauled, equipped with new control systems and thus brought up to a standard for use in the coming decades.
