Cleveland - Innovation and precision since 1965 Since its foundation in 1965, Cleveland can look back on an eventful and successful company history, characterized by technical ingenuity, innovation and continuous growth. One of the three partners retired at the end of 2024. Since 2025, Cleveland has been managed by two managing directors with a focus on the future. The market launch of the SV-7 automatic cut-off grinding machine expands the portfolio with a state-of-the-art product in the field of cutting technology. With the withdrawal of the US company, three experienced employees founded today's Cleveland Lineartechnik GmbH. The brand name “Cleveland” remained - as a symbol of quality, precision and reliability. Another patent follows. The CNC-controlled GAPU series is successfully launched on the market. Cleveland receives the patent for the GAPU series - a significant competitive advantage. As Cleveland Präzisions-Systeme GmbH, the company became part of the US group Danaher and later the Thomson Group. During this time, the market share grew and the name Cleveland stood for quality at the highest level. Cleveland has established itself as a supplier of a comprehensive range of linear technology. With the construction of new production halls and offices, the company grew in terms of structure and personnel - a response to increasing demand. The development of the first motorized sledges marked the next technological milestone. With the takeover by the American Acme Cleveland Corporation, the company became Cleveland Twist Drill. The portfolio was expanded to include twist drills and special tools - the brand name “Cleveland” was born. Cleveland was originally founded as Otto Grieser KG by Löffingen inventor and visionary Otto Grieser. Even in the early days, he developed high-precision guide rails and slide guides - technologies that still stand for quality and innovation today. The well-known GAPU series of dressing and profiling machines can also be traced back to him.
