Where we come from
The beginnings of today's Ernst Grob AG date back to 1926, when Dr. Ernst Grob founded the Ernst Grob Werkzeug- und Maschinenfabrik in Munich. After handing the company over to his son Burkhart Grob (today's Grob-Werke, Mindelheim) in 1952, he returned to Switzerland.
During his time in Germany, Dr. Ernst Grob was intensely involved in the development of cold rolling machines for generating threads by cold forming. The idea of also producing shaft-hub connections using this process finally prompted him to found a new company again at the age of 69.
Following his death in 1985, management of the company passed to his grandson Mr. Daniel Dériaz, who is now the owner of the Daniel Dériaz Holding AG (further information can be found here). Since our foundation in Männedorf in 1962, we have consistently expanded our range of cold forming and mechanical engineering services and are now a leading global supplier with Swiss origins.
