FRICKE Abfülltechnik GmbH & Co. KG will present its DFL laboratory dosing system at Hannover Messe 2026, where it will be exhibited at the Schneider Electric stand. For the family-owned company, its presence at one of the world’s leading industrial trade fairs is a strong statement of its engineering expertise and the capabilities of its Minden production site. FRICKE develops and manufactures dosing and filling systems for demanding applications in the fragrance, flavor, and chemical industries. The company is known for tailor-made technology, a high level of in-house production, and the close integration of mechanical engineering, process know-how, and software expertise. Showcasing a system developed in Minden at a major international trade fair underlines FRICKE’s position as a specialist in precise, automated dosing processes.
At the same time, the collaboration with Schneider Electric reflects a shared understanding of future-proof industrial automation. “Beyond precision engineering, what stands out most in our collaboration with FRICKE is our shared conviction that software-defined automation is the future. A future in which flexibility, data, and intelligent control set new standards for efficiency and innovation,” says Pierre Emmanuel Cotte, Incubation Business Partner at Schneider Electric.
With the DFL, FRICKE is presenting a compact laboratory dosing system designed for the highly precise dosing of liquid raw materials. The system enables even very small quantities to be dosed accurately and reproducibly, making it particularly valuable for product development, formulation work, and quality assurance. Key benefits include exceptional dosing accuracy, automated workflows, modular expandability, and user-friendly operation. As a result, development and approval processes can be made more efficient while significantly reducing day-to-day workload. For FRICKE, the DFL also demonstrates the company’s core strength as a machine builder: delivering technically advanced, practical, and highly adaptable solutions. From planning and design through to manufacturing, every system is developed with extensive expertise and exacting quality standards at the Minden site.
“Presenting our technology at Hannover Messe is also a strong signal for our Minden location,” says Bernd Fricke, Managing Partner. “We develop and manufacture our solutions locally and demonstrate that highly specialized mechanical engineering for international markets is created right here in Minden. This visibility is also important for us in attracting people in the region to FRICKE and to challenging roles in development, design, and manufacturing.”
Hannover Messe 2026 will take place from April 20 to 24 at the exhibition grounds in Hanover, Germany. FRICKE’s DFL laboratory dosing system will be on display in Hall 13, Booth C34, at the Schneider Electric booth. Additional presentations of the DFL in connection with Schneider Electric are planned later this year, including at interpack and SPS.
