Blum-Novotest GmbH is recognized as a developer of leading-edge measurement and testing technology, with some 40 years of experience as partner for the worldwide machine tool, automotive and aircraft industries. Numerous activities with customers in power and medical engineering, as well as many other challenging industry sectors, completes the broad wealth of experience of the company. The Blum-Novotest Group is organized in three different business divisions.
Our business division 'Measuring Components' develops and produces tactile and optical measuring systems for workpiece measurement and tool setting applications in machine tools. Our division 'Measuring and Testing Technology' develops and manufactures production line integrated measuring and testing solutions. Our 'Novotest' division engineers and produces test stands for gearboxes, pulse and burst test stands.
In addition to our modern, fast growing manufacturing sites near Ravensburg (Germany, BW) and Willich (Germany, NRW) we have sales & service subsidiaries in Bordeaux (France), Como (Italy), Birmingham (England), Cincinnati (USA), Los Angeles (USA, West Coast), Nagoya (Japan), Taichung (Taiwan), Seoul (Korea), Singapore (Singapore) and Shanghai (China).
To cover local markets with sales and service for Blum-Novotest products, we are working together with local service staff, selling agencies and factory-trained partners (System Integrators).
In 1968 when I founded the Blum-Novotest Company as an engineering office for the machine tool industry I had the vision to combine innovative mechanical engineering with electronics to design new and much more efficient machines.
While studying aircraft engineering I became familiar with the latest technology of the time. The machine tool industry in the Sixties was still very close to its mechanical roots. I realized the opportunity to establish a business with creative ideas in the rapidly growing machine tool industry. The solutions available at the time were not sufficient to meet the highly technical market demands. It was only with our own engineered solutions that my business idea became successful.
Over the years our product lines changed from machine tool engineering and the production of interface controls to today´s Production Measuring Machines, Test Stands and Machine Tool Measuring Components.

The initial vision, complemented by Software Technology, best service and application support, remain the key factor for our strategy. From the beginning Blum-Novotest was driven by all in the business working shareholders as well as every single hard and responsible working employee.
