More Take contact! Finland Mold History in Finland History in Finland The Swedish company Atlas was founded in 1873 to manufacture the equipment needed by the railways. The start of AB Atlas was awkward as rail orders collapsed. Despite the difficulties, the founders had a strong belief in the future, and the new company saw the light of day in 1890 as the Nya AB Atlas. • In 1917, Nya AB Atlas was merged with M. Wallenberg's AB Diesel Motorer, which was tasked with developing diesel engines. The new company was renamed AB Atlas Diesel. • During World War II, AB Atlas Diesel introduced a new rock drilling method called the “Swedish method” or “man and pneumatic drill”. The system was a success and led to a strong expansion of the company. • In 1948, AB Atlas Diesel ceased production of diesels and the company specialized in the compressed air area. The company name was changed to Atlas Copco; Copco comes from the words Compagnie Pneumatique Commerciale. • Atlas Copco came to Finland as early as 1906, when the first compressor was sold to Ahlström's Vyborg plant. Initially, Atlas Copco's compressors were marketed by Oy Julius Tallberg Ab. • Atlas Paineilmakoneet Oy has been manufacturing spare parts for rock drilling machines and tools in Helsinki, Salmisaari since 1943. • The move to larger premises in Lauttasaari took place in the 1950s, when the company became Oy Atlas Copco Ab. • In 1968, a striking tool factory was built in Kirkkonummi, Masala. • The next strategically significant milestone was in 1987, when our own Atlas Copco sales company was established in Finland. • In 1988, the company moved to the vacant premises of the Masala tool factory. • In 1990, Atlas Copco acquired a divisional organization in line with its current corporate strategy. At that time, three operational units were also formed in Finland: Oy Atlas Copco Kompressorit Ab, Oy Atlas Copco Louhintatekniikka Ab and Oy Atlas Copco Tools Ab. Above the three operating companies, the holding company is Oy Atlas Copco Ab, which is responsible for all companies' properties, the cash register system and acts as an advisor in financial and legal matters. • In December 1999, the companies moved to Vantaa, Tuupakka. • In September 2004, Atlas Copco Craelius Ab acquired Rotex Oy in Tampere, which manufactures earth drilling equipment. • In October 2014, Atlas Copco Finland's head office and service premises moved to new premises in Hakkila, Vantaa. • In 2016, Atlas Copco celebrated its 110th anniversary in Finland.
