Trumpf SE + Co. KG is a German family-owned[1] company based in Ditzingen near Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg.

The Trumpf and Leibinger families transformed the medium-sized company into a globally recognized industrial group.

[3] Today, the company is one of the world’s largest suppliers of machine tools and a leader in laser technology.

[6] The foreign customer base that Trumpf built up through its presence at international trade fairs also contributed to growth.

This machine was based on a patent for coordinate guidance that Trumpf had registered in 1957 as the result of Leibinger's diploma thesis.

[16] In the 1980s and 1990s, Trumpf developed from a medium-sized, southwestern German, or Swabian, company into a global corporation.

[21] Leibinger-Kammüller broadened the group's base by setting up a bank and expanding software development capabilities.

[22] More recently the company has further developed into Industry 4.0 positioning itself in the areas of smart factories,[23] quantum technology and 3D printing.

[24] Trumpf, a German manufacturer of machine tools, faced criticism for maintaining operations in Russia despite international calls for companies to exit the market following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The company reported revenues in Russia during 2021-2022 but did not issue any official statements regarding its activities in the country.

[25] In 2023, Trumpf's revenue in Russia significantly decreased compared to 2022, suggesting a reduction in business operations.

However, customs data from 2023 revealed that components from Trumpf were supplied to Russia via intermediaries, raising concerns about the company's commitment to scaling back its presence in the region.

[34] The operational business of the Trumpf group is organized into two divisions for machine tools and laser technology.

[36] These machines are used in the production of simple sheet metal parts, such as brackets, enclosures or housings, or for components of larger products manufactured, for example in machine and plant construction, commercial vehicles, air-conditioning technology and furniture construction.

[38] The company's continuous wave, short and ultrashort pulse lasers are used, for example, in the automotive, energy, aerospace and medical technology industries.

[41] Trumpf operates internationally, with a strong presence in major markets across Europe, America, and the Asia-Pacific region.

Its production facilities are located in several countries, including Germany, China,[3] France, the UK, Mexico, and Switzerland.

[35] In 2013, Trumpf was awarded the German Future Prize (de: Deutscher Zukunftspreis) for its collaboration with Robert Bosch, researchers from Fraunhofer IOF, and Friedrich Schiller University Jena in developing an ultrashort pulse laser for industrial mass production.

[43] In 2020, Trumpf received the German Future Prize again, this time for its groundbreaking contribution to the production of modern microchips using EUV (extreme ultraviolet) lithography.
