The Sächsische Maschinenfabrik in Chemnitz was one of the most important engineering companies in Saxony in the second half of the 19th century and the first two decades of the 20th century. Including its various predecessor businesses, the firm existed from 1837 until its liquidation in 1930, and individual branches of the company taken over by others continued to operate until 1990. The company is closely linked with the name of its founder and long-time manager, Richard Hartmann, whose name formed part of the new company title in 1898: the ''Sächsische Maschinenfabrik vormals Richard Hartmann'' ('Saxon Engineering Factory, formerly Richard Hartmann'). == Major products == The main aim of the business was the development, design and production of: * Spinning machines (1837–1998) * Locomotives (1848–1929) * Steam engines * Turbines * Mill equipment * Military technology (about 1910-1918) No less than 4,699 locomotives were built by the company between 1848 and 1929. The majority were delivered to the Royal Saxon State Railways (''Königlich Sächsische Staatseisenbahnen''), but customers for her locomotives were to be found worldwide. Equally impressive is the list of spinning and textile machines produced by Hartmann's business. Over many decades these machines from the factory in Chemnitz and its other subsidiaries set the standard for German engineering tradition. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sächsische Maschinenfabrik」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
