<strong>ROSTA</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong> Company’s History<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>ROSTA</strong> rubber suspension element designed in 1941<br />
was originally supposed to be a single-wheel suspension<br />
unit in trailor axles. It combined the function of a wheel<br />
spring device, a suspension unit and – due to the inertia of<br />
the rubber – of a vibration absorbing element. Switzerland<br />
was not a typical production place for components for the<br />
automotive industry. That is why <strong>ROSTA</strong> very soon licensed<br />
various companies <strong>from</strong> abroad to manufacture axles, and<br />
concentrated on the production of machine components.<br />
Automatic chain tensioners and belt tighteners were the first<br />
mass-produced <strong>ROSTA</strong> machine components basing on the<br />
same suspension principle. Today <strong>ROSTA</strong> focuses on the<br />
production of mountings for oscillating screens and guide<br />
bars for charging and conveying troughs. Another major<br />
product line are vibration and oscillation dampers.<br />
