You talk to the right people.
Your technical question reaches the colleagues who develop and manufacture our products directly. The knowledge and the people you work with stay within the company.
EXPERIENCE THAT STAYS WITH US.
People who know GUNDA.
And understand your application.
We are not a large corporation, but a close-knit team with extensive experience. Many of our colleagues have been with GUNDA for years; some have been part of the company since its beginnings. They know our products, how they have evolved and the requirements of a wide range of customer projects.
We share this knowledge directly: mechanical design, electronics, software and manufacturing work closely together. We can clarify technical questions quickly, coordinate modifications directly and respond flexibly to your requirements.
For you, this means personal contacts, short decision-making paths and a drive solution that we develop and implement together with you.
WHY GUNDA?
Short communication paths.
Our own solutions.
Direct support for you.
Your project discussions move forward faster.
Development and manufacturing clarify details directly with each other. Short decision-making paths help us respond promptly to questions and changes.
Your application sets the direction.
Together, we assess what standard components can achieve and where a modification makes sense. Our in-house development and manufacturing give us the flexibility to do this.
WORKING TOGETHER AT GUNDA
A team that has grown together. Here for you together.
A well-coordinated team.
Many colleagues have worked together for years. We know and trust each other, and know whom to ask when a technical question comes up.
Taking responsibility.
We agree with you on what is needed and who will handle each task. This gives your project a clear, understandable path.
Passing on knowledge.
Experience gained over many years stays within our team and is passed on. New colleagues and our customers both benefit.
Thinking with you.
We take time to understand your application and discuss open questions. A good solution starts with understanding what you need to achieve.
IN-HOUSE DEVELOPMENT
From your question
straight to our development team.
Our colleagues develop mechanics, electronics and software in-house. They understand how our products work together and can discuss questions about your application directly with one another. This is how we develop products such as stepper motors with integrated control and servo motors with integrated controller.
This shortens coordination for you: rather than passing requirements through many different departments, we jointly assess suitable components, the interfaces needed and possible modifications. This allows us to respond flexibly to your application.
IN-HOUSE MANUFACTURING
Manufacturing is
part of the conversation here.
The people who develop a drive unit work directly with the colleagues who manufacture and assemble it. Practical questions stay in the conversation between the people working on your solution.
We manufacture drive units for individual projects and combine them for the specific application. We can therefore assess the feasibility of custom versions and changes directly.
We source many components from Germany and neighbouring European countries. We keep critical components in stock. This helps us plan your implementation reliably and respond promptly to requirements.
OUR COMMITMENT TO QUALITY
ISO 9001:2015 certified.
Our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001:2015. It accompanies the process from identifying your requirements to shipping the finished products. Clear procedures help us implement agreements in a traceable way.
Your benefit: clear agreements, traceable processes and a working relationship in which requirements and responsibilities are documented. Behind this is our team, putting these processes into practice every day.

AT HOME HERE
Connected to our region.
Beyond the workshop, too.
We work in Schlier near Ravensburg and feel connected to our region. In April 2024, we started a tree subscription with Travel&Tree to support the planting of native woodland.
The certificate from 2024 documents this part of our commitment. For us, it is a practical way to contribute to our local environment.
WHY COLIBRI?
A small bird.
A name that has stayed with us.
Precise movement, agility and lightness: the hummingbird inspired the name of our drive products. It represents the idea of controlling movement within a small space.
