Company Profile
WITTENSTEIN AG products are found everywhere extreme precision is required to drive, operate and control. The products developed, produced and distributed by WITTENSTEIN include highly precise planetary gears, complete electromechanical drive systems and AC booster systems and motors. The products are implemented in such areas as robots and machine tools, packing, conveyor systems and process technology, paper and printing machines, medical technology, and also in the aerospace industry.
Our fundamental orientation toward intelligent drive systems and the fusion of micro- and macro-technology have driven the further development of our core know-how and core components step by step: In 1983 the first true planetary gearboxes were introduced to the public for the first time. Further developments followed in the areas of linear technology starting in 1991, electronics in 1992, motors in 1994, sensor technology in 1996 and software in 1998.
In the sector of electromechanical hydraulic drivers, the group bases its efforts on the IMI strategy: the three core competencies of Innovation, Miniaturization and Intelligence. From the beginning trends were set in the integration and miniaturization of components; many of these trends have been developed further. The structure of the various stages of development can be illustrated by a staircase model. On the first step are the basic components like transmissions, motors, and control and power electronics. A step higher are the functional units like transmission motors or servo actuators with integrated electronics and software. Entire functional systems such as joysticks in airplanes (sidesticks) are on the next step of integration. Further steps include sub-systems and complete systems.
By integrating components, miniaturization and the development of intelligent systems, the WITTENSTEIN AG also has been able to establish itself as one of the specialists in the aerospace industry.
