Fritz Pfleumer (20 March 1881 in Salzburg - 29 August 1945 in Radebeul) was a German engineer and inventor of magnetic tape.
Pfleumer began his engineering studies at a university in Dresden in 1897.
In 1927, after experimenting with various materials, Pfleumer used very thin paper which he coated with iron oxide powder using lacquer as glue. He received a patent in 1928.[1]
On December 1, 1932 Pfleumer granted the right of use to the AEG that based on his invention built the world's first practical tape recorder called Magnetophon K1. It was first demonstrated at the IFA in 1935.
