Company Profile
Since 1967, Knapheide GmbH Hydraulik-Systeme has developed and produced high-quality, extremely robust hydraulic systems and components for industry and mining in Beckum. The service portfolio includes hydraulic hoses and hose lines, turning and milling technology, pipeline construction, and the manufacture of hydraulic systems with quick couplings, hose connections, and control parts. Highly qualified specialist engineers develop custom hydraulic solutions for modern automation requirements, using computer simulations in 3D CAD systems that allow customers to evaluate solutions already during the development process. The corporate group employs around 900 staff on approximately 50,000 square meters of production space and supplies manufacturers of machines with hydraulic applications worldwide. Since April 2023, Knapheide has been part of the HANSA-FLEX Group, founded in Bremen in 1962, one of the leading system providers in hydraulics and pneumatics.
