German based company founded 1886 by Robert Bosch. Besides making power tools, Bosch has branches that deal with the automotive industry and other areas. Since this site is about professional power tools, this will be about the Bosch power tool division. In 1906 Bosch opened the first office outside Europe. He opened a sales office in New York. You can say that the first power tool Bosch developed was the electric hair clipper in 1928.

Bosch is known for the the Jig Saw, 1946. Unfortunately they could never get the Jig Saw to sell and especially because they were black listed by the allies for selling magnetos to the German during wartime. In 1964 when the Jig Saw name went back to Bosch, they effectively marketed the Jig Saw and now have sold over 20 million. In 1955, Bosch (Metabo) invented the first rotary hammer. In 1984 Bosch launched the first cordless rotary hammer.
