In 1885, while employed at a file factory in Remscheid, the Mannesmann brothers invented a roller-piercing mill, and in 1891 they designed a pilger mill to manufacture seamless pipe. Using their patents, the Mannesmann brothers in 1890 organized the Mannesmannröhren-Werke, the largest metallurgical concern in the pipe-rolling industry. The Mannesmann brothers also had a number of inventions in other technical areas, such as carburizing steel, file production, and telephony.
