The company PTV, spol. s r.o. was created in 1991. Its founders had been active in promoting high-pressure liquid jet (HLJ) technologies in eastern Europe as early as the 1980s.

Its chief activity was originally supplying systems, disposable parts, as well as service and know-how to users of HLJ technology at pressure levels of 2400 to 4130 bar.

In time, the company itself developed from an almost exclusively trading enterprise to a firm fully focusing on manufacturing its own products. In 1996, it supplied the first pump of its own construction, and in January 2000, PTV constructed its first CNC X-Y table.

As of the present day, PTV has completed contracts for over 800 systems working with HLJ technology, acquiring clients in eastern Europe, the EU, and the USA.

Thanks to these successes, PTV has been able to expand on a larger scale abroad, and create its own commercial branches in eastern and eventually western Europe.
