Dynabrade Celebrates 50th Anniversary

March 12, 2019—On April 1, Dynabrade is celebrating its 50th anniversary in operation.

Walter Welsch started the company near Buffalo, N.Y.,  in 1969 after inventing the Dynafile, a pneumatic power tool that replaces hand sanding and polishing. 

It has grown into a global company with world-wide distribution, having subsidiaries in both Europe and Asia. The company offers a product line of process solutions, including but not limited to pneumatic abrasive power tools, and clean air solutions.

“Our founder was known as the man with a method. He always focused on how to improve the end-users’ finishing processes by developing specialty tools that save customers time and money,” said Hardy Hamann, president of Dynabrade, in a press release.
