1891 On the death of the founder, his only son Philipp Huck takes over the running of the company.

His two sons Hans and Wilhelm succeeded him in 1937.

In 1947, his widow Mrs. Rosemarie Huck began to rebuild.

In 1951, she married Mr. Hoesslinger, who brought in his engineering knowledge and set up special mechanical engineering. He thus brought the enterprise up to today's level and is still always working on further innovations.

Since the 60's he has been supported by the sons Johann-Adolf Huck (accountant) and Rudolf Huck (engineer), who have now taken over the reins of the company.

1964 Purchase of Jean Kalb & Co. with its greased nipple production and special equipment.
