In 1912, Fritz Studer established a small machine shop in Steffisburg, Switzerland. Because he had no grinding machine to produce precise parts, he promptly built his own. Thus Studer AG was born, a company still dedicated to supplying complex grinding solutions and processes. One of the earliest Studer designs is on display at United Grinding, Booth N-6800. Of course, the latest Studer grinders such as the S41 CNC universal cylindrical grinder are also on display.
