About us
Linear technology with enthusiam and passion.
HSB Automation is a family-owned, mid-sized company from Reutlingen, Germany with a passion for mechanical linear technology.
Since 1993, our mindset has been simple: if there is a challenge, there is a solution. We develop and manufacture systems for applications where off-the-shelf products are no longer enough – from (portal) linear units and linear tables to gantry systems, complex multi-axis solutions and handling systems.
Custom engineering is at the heart of what we do. Many of the products in our portfolio started with a specific customer challenge, an unconventional idea or a demanding application.
These challenges continuously push us to explore new approaches, refine existing products and advance our solutions.
Our solutions are used across a wide range of industries, including energy technology, medical technology, food processing, mechanical and plant engineering, and automotive applications.
With engineering, manufacturing and assembly all in-house, we benefit from short decision paths, deep manufacturing expertise and a high degree of flexibility. This allows us to deliver sophisticated custom solutions quickly and reliably – from batch size one.
Behind it all is an experienced team that combines technical expertise with genuine enthusiasm for what we do.
Our values are at the heart of everything we do, shaping our work, our teamwork, and the future we’re building together.
Taking The Lead.
We encourage everyone at HSB to take initiative, share ideas, and actively shape the future of the company. Open communication makes this possible and strengthens a fair, respectful, and collaborative culture.
Better Together.
Our short decision-making paths are our strength: as a family-run business with flat hierarchies, we work on equal terms – with trust, appreciation, and collaboration. Diversity and inclusion are a part of who we are: we welcome different perspectives and stand against any form of discrimination.
