Doubling up on smart sensor production: Increasing capacity by 130% in 2022 with our factory in Minden, Germany

To meet the digital-driven demands of the future, OEMs in the mobile hydraulics industry must build smarter, safer, and higher-performance machines than ever before. That’s why, in 2022, Danfoss Sensing Solutions will more than double its thin-film pressure sensor production with additional production capacity from our factory in Minden, Germany.

As of January 2022, production of the MBS 1250 and new DST P650 pressure transmitters has scaled by 35%—proving that Danfoss Sensing Solutions is already helping its customers across the globe meet the demand for smart solutions in a variety of mobile hydraulic applications.

“Our increased production capacity supports our ambitious growth plans for the mobile hydraulics pressure sensor portfolio. We now have a full understanding of the market’s needs, and that’s why ensuring free capacity is one of my primary must-win battles—alongside safety and quality—for 2022,” says Kasper Kristiansen, Plant Manager, Danfoss Sensing Solutions Gmbh.

With additional production equipment, a 25% increase in employees, and three dedicated production shifts, Danfoss Sensing Solutions underscores its commitment to helping OEMs serve the rapidly expanding mobile hydraulics market.
