Hammelmann Maschinenfabrik GmbH based in Oelde, Westphalia is a manufacturer of high pressure plunger pumps, process pumps and high pressure cleaning equipment. The German company is a member of the Italian Interpump Group.
History[edit]
Founding and development up until 1955[edit]
The company was founded during 1949. It was registered with the Chamber of Commerce on March 1st. 1949. Production commenced with the manufacture of bicycle components followed by subcontract work for electric machinery manufacturers. The first finished product, a “Mus-Mühle” (foodstuff mill) arrived in 1952.This product was later followed by the “Ruck-Zuck” range of construction site elevators. Dosing pumps were added to the product range from 1955 at which point the founder made the decision to concentrate on the development and manufacture of plunger pumps for high pressure water cleaning which laid the foundation for the business as it is today.
Technical developments from 1955 up until today[edit]

| 1999 | - Introduction of the HDP 400 with pressures up to 2800 bar and flow rates to 480 l/min |
| - XXL tank cleaning head for 500 l/min at 1500 bar |
2000-2009
| 2001 | - Water hydraulic tools programme extended |
| 2002 | - Ergoblast® blasting gun. A combination of user friendly ergonomics and advanced transponder technology awarded the “Safety at work prize” in the “Innovative concept” category by the German association of commercial and industrial workers. |
| - Start of the development of a new generation of pumps with increased power and incorporating common components in each individual power class. | |
| - Invention of the bellows hermetic seal between fluid and power ends of the pump | |
| - 4000 bar pumps for jet cutting table applications | |
| 2003 | - Introduction of the most powerful Hammelmann pump to date, the HDP 750 enabling flow rates up to 1760 l/min and operating pressures to 3000 bar with a power rating of 750 kW. |
| 2005 | - The RD Flex Rotorjet with manually adjustable rotation speeds enters the market |
| - Rotating hose reels with lance feed systems for tube and pipe cleaning introduced | |
| - New blasting gun handgrip design to reduce the trigger force by over 80% | |
| 2006 | -State of the art ES 2 supersedes the ES 1 controller. Features large graphic display, CAN Bus interface to the diesel, SMD technology, analogue inputs etc. |
| 2007 | - A totally new design of the Dockboy ship bottom blasting vehicle debuts |
| 2008 | - Handrail cleaner marketed. For coating removal on industrial installation handrails |
Since 2010
| 2010 | - Multiple rotary drives powered by a single hydraulic motor. Enable complete separation between water and oil hydraulics |
| - Unveiling of Zero Emission® pumps for transporting environmentally dangerous, explosive and toxic mediums. | |
| - New sound damping covers to accept current and future emission class diesel engines | |
