In 1953, Dr. Gilbert Wanninger, an engineer at the German firm Waldrich Siegen G.m.b.H., dramatically changed the longevity of the cable and hose life with the invention and patent of the dynamic carrier system. Within a year, the visionary industrialist and proprietor, Dr. Ing E.h. Oskar Waldrich, founded KabelSchlepp G.m.b.H., marking the inception of the dynamic cable and hose management industry, now more than 50 years ago.
