1973

                                                                                                                

### Wolfgang Herion takes over the management

                                                                                                                

International expansion also begins under the new management.

                                                                    
                                                            
                        
                                            
                            
                            
                                
                                                                            

1947

                                                                                                                

### Move to Pfaffenhofen / Bavaria & renaming to WMH Herion

                                                                                                                

After the events in Berlin, Ernst Herion leaves Berlin and once again founds a company in Pfaffenhofen, the WMH Herion. Even then, business success is based both on constructive dialogue between the company and its customers and on a keen sense of the particular requirements of the time.

                                                                    
                                                            
                        
                                            
                            
                            
                                
                                                                            

1945-1946

                                                                                                                

### Destruction and reconstruction

                                                                                                                

Towards the end of the Second World War, the production facility is almost completely destroyed. In 1946, the company is rebuilt after the war.

                                                                    
                                                            
                        
                                            
                            
                            
                                
                                                                            

1928

                                                                                                                

### Re-establishment of the factory

                                                                                                                

In 1928, Ernst Herion once again founds a company in Berlin, which at that time mainly manufactures valve seat cutters for the aviation industry.

                                                                    
                                                            
                        
                                            
                            
                            
                                
                                                                            

1918

                                                                                                                

### Expropriation after the First World War

                                                                                                        
                                                            
                        
                                            
                            
                            
                                
                                                                            

1895

                                                                                                                

### Founding of the machine, fittings and milling cutter factory
