We develop high-precision planetary gearboxes, complete electromechanical drive systems and AC servo systems and motors. These products span the universe of applications, including machine tools, logistics processes, conveyance and processing technology, medical technology, aerospace and more. In fact: Eighty-five percent of our sales are generated from products less than five years old.

We are an independent company with strong principles. Our values are reflected in everything we do.

We know exactly who we are and where we want to go. We are not interested in short term profit. Our passion is innovation: Forging new paths and breaking new ground: that is what drives us from day to day.

We never forget who we have to thank for our success: Our employees are and will remain our greatest asset. Each individual is an innovator, who is constantly seeking out improvements and making their contribution to our company's well-being.

As a family company, we are committed to our home.

In rural areas, ideas have longer to mature, they can be developed more patiently and over a longer period of time. We value this freedom and regard it as a key benefit of our location.

MINI solutions offer our customers clear advantages: reduced resources, improved Performance and reduced complexities.

Our SIR marketing strategy focuses on Security, Intelligence and Resource-efficiency. With SIR, we gear our developments to the major challenges facing our customers. This ensures that a product from our company always features relevant added value for our customers and provides them with a clear edge on the market.

That is why we engage in intensive partnerships with our customers, which often last for many years. By listening carefully to them and putting ourselves in their shoes, we can learn their needs and devise solutions for them. In mutual consultation, we develop highly-innovative ideas that provide our customers with key advantages on the market. The organization of our processes also contributes to this success: with incredibly flexible production, extremely short development times, flawless quality management and prompt delivery – on request, even within 24 hours.

It pushes each one of us to think harder and constantly analyze how we can make a product or a process even better. With our pioneering spirit, our skills and our joy in the search for solutions, we open up all new possibilities for our customers. By continuously developing our components and systems, we meet the needs of our customers and also further our own development. We delight in unconventional ideas and approaches. They inspire all of the team, and the interplay between these drives creates a dynamic that opens up new horizons for us. The success of this philosophy is evidence by the receipt of the 2015 Hermes Award for the development of the revolutionary Galaxie drive system at the Hanover trade show.

Whether for technology or product quality, service  or leadership: In all areas, each and every one of us strives for top performance. In this way, we aim to clearly distinguish ourselves from our competitors.

A team of sensor, electronics, software, data and cloud specialists are currently driving digitalization forward there. The team’s playing fields are on the one hand digital services for our customers and on the other the transformation of our internal value added. In both cases, the aim is to increase efficiency. Making WITTENSTEIN employees fit for the digital world is another major focus.
