Global Presence Eckelmann AG is a mid-sized, globally active automation solutions provider with subsidiaries in Erfurt, Herford, Wilhelmshaven, Shanghai and Tvrdonice, plus an expanded presence in Lyon, France. It delivers end-to-end automation from field devices to control systems across industries including mechanical engineering, metallurgy, refrigeration, food, chemicals and medical technology, supporting multinational rollouts and cross-border projects.

Compact Controller May 2026 saw the launch of a compact controller and the Eckelmann FCS line, signaling a product expansion toward compact, cost-efficient control solutions. This creates opportunities to modernize small to mid-size lines, especially for CO2 refrigeration and multi-compressor rack applications where Virtus Line platforms can be complemented or upgraded.

Regulatory Readiness The company holds ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 certifications, plus UL-listed switch cabinet manufacturing and SCC safety credentials, positioning it well for regulated industries such as pharma, medical technology, food and chemicals that require rigorous quality and safety standards.

Strategic Growth Recent expansion and partnerships demonstrate a growth-oriented go-to-market. The Lyon office expansion and the 2025 Boss Tables collaboration indicate a broader European footprint and potential co-selling or system integration partnerships that can accelerate local deals and service delivery.

Siemens Synergy Technology stack includes Siemens platforms and related industrial software, enabling seamless migrations and integrations for customers already using Siemens equipment. This positions Eckelmann as a compatible partner for upgrades, retrofits and complete automation projects in existing Siemens environments.
