HEINZMANN History – Trusted partner for over 100 years
Ever since the company was founded in 1897, HEINZMANN has made major contributions to progress in the field of speed governors. From mechanical versions, all the way to advanced digital control systems and complete common rail solutions.
Since 1985 HEINZMANN has also produced robust electric drives for a wide range of applications - highly efficient, environment-friendly and absolutely reliable. Latest development is a full line of hybrid drives for industrial engines.
Since late 2005, REGULATEURS EUROPA has been a member of the HEINZMANN Group, expanding our range with electro-hydraulic actuators and governors of the highest quality.
With the acquisition of PERM motors HEINZMANN completed its product range in the electric drive division.
