Revolutionizing Agriculture: RAUCH Harnesses SAF™ and FDM® Technologies for Innovative Equipment Manufacturing

A Reputation for Innovation Manufacturing

If agricultural engineering is in the RAUCH company genes, innovation is its very DNA. From its early 1900s inventions for harrows and plows, to its first bestseller - a fertilizer-spreader- in the 1930s, to the modern machinery they manufacture now, this family-run firm sits firmly on the leading edge of the agricultural technology industry.

When it comes to agricultural equipment, RAUCH is known worldwide for innovation and excellence. With more than 170 patents to its credit, not to mention numerous Agritechnica Innovation Awards from the German Agricultural Society (DLG), the company has earned myriad honors at national and international exhibitions. Its Germany-made products, respected for their quality, reliability and durability, are currently exported to farmers and agricultural contractors in 43 countries.

If only Franz Rauch, the master blacksmith who started it all, could see them now. A century on from their official founding in 1921, RAUCH today still has some of his direct descendants - five generations later - at the helm. And as it was in the very beginning, they remain relentlessly focused on advancing their products, and their processes, with an eye toward the future.

"We are driven by innovation to achieve the impossible in agricultural engineering," says Managing Director Volker Stöcklin. "Our mission is not only the manufacturing of machines, but also the innovation of the products, the innovation of the function for our customers."

In fact, adds Stöcklin, their devotion to innovation is what makes RAUCH stands out from the crowd. And Stratasys plays a role in their distinction.
