Hoffmann Propeller
Hoffman Propeller is a German manufacturer of aircraft propellers. The company headquarters is located at Rosenheim in Bavaria, Germany.History
Established in 1955 the company initially designed and produced propellers for motor gliders with a staff of six. The company expanded into the field of general aviation propeller overhaul and today, with a staff of 65, the company offers a wide range of propeller services including new certified replacements for vintage aircraft where the original propeller type is unavailable.
The company has acquired rights to the V-Prop, an automatic self-powering electronic variable-pitch propeller invented by Thomas Strieker of Silence Aircraft. Stefan Bichlmeyr from Technical Engineering at Hoffmann Propeller has said that the firm is working with Thomas Strieker to redesign the VProp system for bigger engines. As of June 2013 this redesign is in process but not finished yet.
