With the takeover of the former field-sprayer manufacturer Jacoby in June 2005 and the takeover of the RTS-plant-protection-technology (RCG Meppen) in November 2005, LEMKEN enters a new product segment and develops to a specialist in plant production.

The traditional Jacoby-products guarantee highest quality of work. In addition, they are solidly built and easy to apply. Characteristically for the field sprayers is the robust aluminium tube which guarantees optimal protection of the nozzles and the nozzle-bodies.

Products:

Mounted field sprayer EuroLux to 24 m working width (volume of the tank 800-1.200 l)

Trailed field sprayer EuroTrain aluminium tube up to 28 m working width (volume of the tank 2.600-6.000 l)

History of Jacoby and LEMKEN

The field-sprayer manufactory Jacoby was founded in 1904 and established the production site in Hetzerath in 1914. The company gradually expanded its product range and started manufacturing motor-driven injector-pumps in 1934. A new headquarters was built and the factory’s production area was enlarged in 1938. After World War II Jacoby manufactured trailed field sprayer with a working width up to 30 m and tanks holding 300 to 5000 l.

Jacoby received several awards of the German Agricultural society (DLG) and Agritechnika (International Agricultural Machinery Fair).

In addition, the company filed patents for its distinguished technical solution securing plants protection and environment protection.

After more than a century and three generations, the family-owned and operated company Jacoby was acquired by LEMKEN in 2005.

The company has a workforce of 32 employees.
