We found lots of interesting things in a book called “Die Firma” written by Mr. Friedrich-Karl Jacobsen in 1989.

We are building on the experience of the original measuring device company C. Wilh. Stein Sohn founded in Hamburg in 1887.
As long ago as the early 1960’s, C. Wilh. Stein Sohn pioneered unmanned ship’s operational engine monitoring systems and has since grown to become a leading manufacturer with more than 10,000 automation systems installed worldwide.
