The German plunger pump company Uraca GmbH & Co KG is marking its 125th anniversary this year.\u00a0\u00a0Founded in 1893 as a mechanical workshop by cousins Friedrich Krumm and Gustav Magenwirth.
Uraca currently has annual sales of around \u20ac70 million, with exports accounting for more than 60%. The company has subsidiaries in China and France and employs more than 300 people, including 21 trainees.
The Krumm&MagenwirthMaschinen-Werkst\u00e4tte developed its own 3.5 HP horizontal gasoline engine to drive its machine tools. This piston engine laid the foundation for generations of plunger pumps.
In the early 1930s, PumpenfabrikUrach brought a single-gun high-pressure car wash pump to the market; this small pump unit and its attached spray gun became the basis of Uraca\u2019s current offerings for high-pressure cleaning.
In 1937, the Uraca company name was adopted and the current SirchingerStra\u00dfe company site in Bad Urach was purchased.
With the economic expansion of the 1950s and early 1960s, the product range expanded to include large pumps for the chemical industry as well as high-pressure pumps for sewer cleaning.
Uraca recently expanded its high-pressure cleaning product line with the acquisition of Dynajet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
