history
The Scope Journal first appeared in 1961 and was a new type of specialist journal for the time. In October 1986 the title was shortened to Scope . Publisher Roland Hoppenstedt adopted the concept of the Kennziffer magazine for the German market, which the English publisher Ryan had introduced in the 1950s with the Scope's Factory and Office Service magazine . The first editor-in-chief was Carl Hertweck , who ran the paper until his death in 1970. Scope has been very successful from the start. The number of pages increased from 424 pages in 1961 to 3,034 pages in 1970. In 1973, automation and handling technology were spun off into the new handling magazine .
Günter Schlieper headed the magazine from 1970 to 1992, followed by Edgar Grundler in 1992 and Dieter Capelle in 1994. Scope's website was launched under his leadership in 1996 . He was followed by Hajo Stotz as editor-in-chief. The current editor-in-chief is Andrea Gillhuber.
