| The History of J.D. Neuhaus | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
In 1745 our ancestor Johann Diederich Neuhaus was found worthy to be listed as an "industrialist" in the "Sprockhoevelschen Factory Register" and to be accepted in a kind of "Commercial Co-Operative". We have been manufacturing "JDN Hoists" ever since and are now in the seventh generation. | |||

At first we mainly produced jacks with wooden shanks and no carter wanted to travel without these jacks because of the terrible road conditions and the continuous wheel and axle damages. | |||

We still manufacture jacks today but many basic principles have changed. The "Significant Date" for this was in 1952 when we had the idea to put a pneumatic motor to a so far manually operated pulley block. | |||
|
Main customer of our pneumatic hoists was the coal mining industry where a product has to be robust and reliable if it wants to prove itself. | |||

Towards the
end of the 60`s we developed special pneumatic hoists for industrial
applications: the JDN Air Hoists "PROFI" series. They can be used wherever
there is a danger of explosion or where loads have to be moved very
sensitively. For the ship building industry we developed a "PROFI" with a
carrying capacity of 100 t. |
|||
| As the first company in the material handling industry we received the Certificate For Quality Assurance in 1991. In the same year we widened our delivery programme to become a universal supplier of complete crane installations. | ||||
| In 1998 we launched the compact air hoist of the mini series. | ||||
