Hansen

Founded in 1907, Hansen has built upon its timing control roots to become a market leader in small motor manufacturing.

Hansen Corporation was founded in 1907 by Julis W. Hansen, a German immigrant who had moved to Princeton, Indiana in 1905. The founder was a jeweler and watch maker by trade. His first recognition came when he designed the first automatic bell ringing system at the request of a local high school principal. This innovated product launched Hansen Manufacturing Company, Inc. Today Hansen Corporation manufactures a variety of DC Motors, Synchronous Motors, AC Clock Movements, and Stepper Motors used in applications for automotive, HVAC systems, instrumentation, office equipment, and medical equipment.
