Welcome to REIN force measuring equipment / REIN Kraftmessgeräte, Germany

Our product range covers the complete spectrum of force measurement technology including electronic force transducers.

The focus is on the innovative construction of individual devices and small series according to customer requirements, as well as workshop testing devices and prototypes for mechanical engineering.

Johann Rein Kraftmessgeräte was founded in 1947 by the experienced engineer Johann Rein. The company was located at Langestr. 13 in Bad Urach. Mechanical and optical force gauges were manufactured for checking material testing machines. The product range was expanded in 1970 to include hydraulic force gauges and force introduction parts. In 1996, we received the Innovation Award of the Foundation of the Kreissparkasse Reutlingen for the development of a micrometer testing device for checking the measuring force on all common micrometers.

At the turn of the year 2001, we moved our company headquarters to Laichingen into our new production hall. At the same time, we changed our name to Steffen Rein Kraftmessgeräte, who has continued to run the company in the 3rd generation since 1998.
