1912
Studer has been seriously influencing the history of grinding
since 1912. From a small company at that time Studer has
developed into an international enterprise which today employs 600+ people. Our position as industry leader is thanks to the
know-how we have acquired through manufacturing more than 17,000
machines. The pioneering spirit of that era is also reflected in
our product range today.
