KK&K Fan Technology – Where Original Meets the Future at TLT-Turbo
Does your system run on KK&K fans? Then you’re right here.
For decades, KK&K (Kühnle, Kopp & Kausch) fans have stood for quality and reliability – whether in power plants, steel production, or large-scale industrial facilities around the globe. What many don’t know: The original KK&K fan technology has been part of TLT-Turbo since 1996.
Who Was KK&K – and How Did It Become Part of TLT-Turbo?
Kühnle, Kopp & Kausch (KK&K) was founded in 1899 in Frankenthal, Germany, and grew into one of the most established engineering companies in the country. The company became a leader in turbomachinery and fan technology – with products used worldwide in power plants, industrial operations, and large-scale systems.
Over time, KK&K became part of Siemens Turbomachinery Equipment GmbH. In 1996, TLT-Turbo GmbH acquired the rights to KK&K’s fan technology – specifically the AP, AN, and V/VZ fan types – and has continued to carry this technical legacy forward ever since.
Today, we are not only the owner of the technology, but also the sole OEM service partner for all KK&K fan systems installed worldwide.
