JAUDT Dosing Technology Machine Factory

What JAUDT Dosing Technology Machine Factory does

JAUDT Dosiertechnik Maschinenfabrik GmbH is a German mechanical engineering company established in 1951 and headquartered in Augsburg, Bavaria. The company manufactures industrial bulk material handling components including rotary valves (Zellenradschleusen), slide gates (Schieber), butterfly valves (Drehklappen), double shuttle valves, distributor valves (Schaltweichen), and siloblasters. Its core technical differentiator is explosion protection capability, anchored by the proprietary registered ExZü brand, which unlike standard ATEX devices that must not ignite explosions, actively prevents the spread of explosions and stops explosions that have already occurred. JAUDT holds ATEX, IECEx, EHEDG, EN ISO 3834-3, and AD 2000 HP 0 certifications, with ATEX-certified devices representing approximately 40% of its product portfolio.

The company operates a direct enterprise B2B sales model with dedicated regional sales representatives covering all German federal states plus international territories in Europe, North America, South America, Asia, Africa, and Australia, supplemented by distribution partnerships in the Netherlands, France, and Poland. Revenue is generated almost entirely through custom-quotation hardware sales of equipment, spare parts, accessories, and after-sales support, with a secondary stream from as-new or used refurbished equipment sold from stock for faster delivery. All manufacturing—from certified welding through CNC machining, painting, assembly, and packing—is conducted in-house at the Augsburg facility.

JAUDT serves a diversified set of industrial verticals: chemical processing, food production (with EHEDG-certified easy-clean designs), environmental technology, construction materials, plastics manufacturing, and heavy industry including metallurgy and cement production, where its high-temperature gate valves operate up to 750°C. The company has demonstrated an active product development cadence between February 2025 and April 2026, launching new rotary valves (ZS ATEX 250/450, ZST tangential, ZS ChemFood) and a high-temperature heavy-industry gate valve (FSM GT 500 HTA), and in November 2025 became the first company to achieve IECEx certification for rotary valve and slide gate series, materially expanding its addressable market outside the European ATEX framework.
