Company History

- Founder
Dr. Schenk
In 1985, Dr. Christoph Schenk developed a revolutionary high speed and high resolution automated inspection system for optical media and continuous web products, replacing the need for manual inspection by the human eye. This same year, Dr. Schenk founded Dr. Schenk GmbH to meet the growing demand for his innovative inspection and measurement equipment.
With the goal to better serve the increasing global customer base, Dr. Jochen Koenig established Schenk Vision LLC in 1995 which has since expanded Schenk’s scientific concepts, developments, and product range to include both North and South America.
Since its founding, Schenk has maintained a solid reputation for its Quality Control and Process Control scanners that are rooted in integrity and innovation. Schenk scanners map localized imperfections on material, gauge mechanical and optical properties of the material, and perform accurate and fast measurement of the mechanical and optical properties.
In 2004, Dr. Schenk GmbH and Schenk Vision LLC received certification according to ISO 9001. For more than 2 decades, Schenk has been well-known as a reliable partner for providing test and inspection systems of outstanding quality and the highest reliability. This certification is just one more way that Schenk testifies to its customers its rigorous quality management system and its commitment to continuous improvement.
Each of Schenk’s customers and business partners are assured that all processes and services, from the initial contact, the product specification, design and manufacturing, up to the test procedures, installation, training and long-term service support, is done to the highest, most precisely defined quality standards.
Now with over 12,000 systems installed worldwide and sales and service offices spanning the globe, Schenk remains a leader in the ever-changing field of surface inspection.
