Thus, the worldwide success story of the ball bearing begins in Schweinfurt. Later, 1883 is officially declared the year in which the company was founded. 1890 - On July 17, Fischer received the patent for his ball grinding machine from the Kaiserliches Patentamt .
An entirely different standard had been established for Hyatt Roller Bearings." [12] Soon Hyatt bearings were used in axles and transmissions by a number of manufacturers.
