Beomat History In Karlstad in the late 60's, two shooters made the first prototype of our clay target launcher. They were dissatisfied with the existing brands which caused many problems including lots of target damage. A lot of work went into getting a launcher that was reliable and handled targets without target crush. Production began on a modest scale by Bröderna Hedbergs Mekaniska Verkstad in Skattkärr outside Karlstad. The launchers were named after the workshop and sales began to increase when rumours of the launcher spread amongst shooters regarding the reliability. The name of the launchers changed to Beomat. In the early 80’s more models with a rotating tray and a patented target elevator which laid down the target in a very gentle way were developed. The new launchers were received very well and exportation began. To meet increased demand, mainly from the U.S.A., production was moved in 1985 to Storfors were a company with the name Beomat manufactured and sold Beomat launchers. The product line consists of a variety of models. Sales of the launchers and spare parts for the Swedish market is from Storfors.
