Carl Eibes

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carl Heribert Eibes (born February 5, 1899 in Dresden ; † July 3, 1967 in Schnaittenbach ) was a German economist and entrepreneur.

Life

Carl Eibes was born in Dresden as the son of the lawyer Bernhard Eibes. His father, from 1911 a judicial advisor, was one of the closest legal advisors to the Saxon royal family and in 1924 was involved in drafting the contracts to clarify the financial situation of the Wettins. After attending the Vitzthum School in Dresden, Carl Eibes joined the Saxon army as a war volunteer . During his deployment he was taken prisoner by the English and did not return to Dresden until 1919.

In the following years he worked for the Dresden cigarette machine factory "Universelle" and studied social and economic sciences in Gdansk and Dresden. After completing his diploma in economics, he earned a doctorate in economics. In 1927/28 he took over the company Kerb-Konus-Gesellschaft founded by his father in 1925 , the world's oldest manufacturer of notched fasteners for mechanical engineering. Together with the Technical University of Dresden , Eibes developed modern manufacturing processes on a scientific basis. Among other things, the company was significantly involved in the development of the rotary piston engine and acquired several patents.

In 1946 the Kerb-Konus-Gesellschaft was expropriated and converted into a VEB . Eibes had left Dresden immediately after the end of the Second World War and founded the Kerb-Konus-Vertriebs-GmbH in Bielefeld in 1946 . Three years later, the company moved its headquarters to Schnaittenbach, where it resumed the production of grooved pins and nails. The company, which still exists today, has been based in Amberg since 1970 . For his services, Eibes received the Federal Cross of Merit 1st Class on June 15, 1964 . He became an honorary citizen of Schnaittenbach, which named a street after him.
