HBE GmbH, being part of the Echterhage Group and located in the German city of Neuenrade, has been developing and manufacturing steel and aluminium oil tanks for over 30 years. Since the formation of the company in 1984, a high quality range of hydraulic components as well as shaft and flange couplings for the fluid and drive technology have supplemented the product programme. A constant development and supplement of the existing products, e.g. a complete range of heat exchangers or an assortment of backlash-free shaft couplings, are the main factors for the success of HBE.
