The company was founded on the 24th of August 1925 in Nuremberg under the name NORIS Tachometerwerk Dr. Siegfr. Guggenheimer GmbH (later only NORIS Tachometerwerk GmbH) by the German physicist Dr. Siegfried Guggenheimer and his colleague Paul Hansen. With mechanical instruments for rotational-speed measurement (tachometers and tachographs), centrifugal switches and electrical remote tachometer systems for use in the machinery, mining, shipbuilding and aircraft-manufacturing industries, in the first 8 years of its existence NORIS developed into an export-oriented company with approximately 30 employees, whose durable products were held in high regard by customers in Eastern Europe, the UK and the USA.
