Poclain

Tracked Poclain excavator Poclain is a French agricultural machinery company. It was founded by the engineer Georges Bataille (not to be confused with the writer Georges Bataille) in France in 1927, then developed by his sons Pierre and Claude Bataille, with help from Jacques and Bernard Bataille. It was originally called Ateliers de Poclain and operated out of Le Plessis-Belleville.

Poclain produced excavators, and was a leader on the French and world market thanks to a revolutionary hydraulic motor. The Batailles were forced to sell the company to Case in 1974, an American company, which then took over completely in 1987, leaving them (the Batailles) only the hydraulics division, which is still trading today.

Poclain makes radial piston hydraulic motors, which are mostly used in industrial and off highway vehicles. Provided by Wikipedia
