100 years is just the start
2019 was a very special year for us – it commemorates 100 years of the first measuring technology presented by ZEISS at an industry fair: the iconic ZEISS Screw Gauge at the 1919 Leipzig Spring Fair.
While its first measuring tools were based on microscopy, over the years ZEISS Industrielle Messtechnik GmbH has developed a range of contact and multisensor measuring technology – a field in which the company has excelled. And today, after 100 years of ZEISS measuring we haven’t looked back ever since, by supporting our customers wherever the highest level of precision is required and by setting industry standards for over 100 years to help our customers manufacture a better future. It has been an exciting journey, and we are thrilled about what is coming up next.
