Corporate development
In the mid-1960s, the brothers Hans and Werner Turck founded the family company with two employees, 20,000 DM start-up capital and the idea of automating production processes using electronic components. A little later, Hermann Hermes joined the young company as a partner.
Ten years after the company was founded, the international orientation of Hans Turck GmbH & Co. KG began with the establishment of Turck Inc. in Minneapolis / USA in 1975. Since then, the family company has founded numerous new sales and production companies worldwide. In 1989 the company entered the Eastern European market by taking over the measuring equipment factory in Beierfeld / Saxony. In 1995, a production and sales company was founded in Tianjin / China for a presence in Asia.
On July 10, 2015, almost three months after Werner Turck, his brother Hans Turck died as the second company founder.
