You need to improve your drive system or develop a new system that meets the highest requirements. But inflexible standard solutions will not achieve the desired goals. You want to create a decisive competitive advantage with your drive technology. However, the implementation fails because the costs of optimally designing the drive for your system are too high. You are reaching the limits of what is technically feasible due to increasing customer demands. That is why you are looking for more freedom in the mechanical design or programming of motion sequences.
Manufacturers of mass-produced goods can afford their own drive technology. However, a large number of companies cannot. They cannot optimize their products to meet your needs. However, constantly increasing customer demands are forcing you to act.
For more than 30 years, the ACHSTRON team has specialized in finding the best possible solution for its customers.

Rottweil in the summer of 1989: meeting with all my colleagues, my boss and I as sales manager. The management of AEG (part of Daimler-Benz since 1985) announced the relocation without much ado. Not moving again, was my first thought. How will my wife and children react? Others had similar thoughts, as did my boss at the time.
The mood quickly sank to rock bottom - nobody wanted to leave their home to move to Frankfurt or Berlin with no certainty. But when I got home, I had a liberating thought. What a coincidence that I had just attended a seminar on self-employment and management buy-out a few months earlier. The idea quickly turned into a plan that excited the whole team: my boss and I would become the owners and managing directors of a new company and secure the jobs back home.
Now the owner, AEG, had to be convinced and a contract with a purchase price had to be agreed. After all, we wanted to keep AEG as a major customer. The decisive argument was that we would continue to supply the motors to AEG in the future and guarantee their maintenance. This was very important for the brushed servomotors at the time.
In retrospect, the decision and this path proved to be the right one. Because in 1996 at the latest, we would have been out of work due to the restructuring of the Daimler-Benz Group. And at that time, the job market was certainly not an easy one.
Yours, Dieter van Spankeren
The idea to change the name came about in 2018 when we were repeatedly asked what the abbreviation ime stood for. And of course we wanted to be at the top of the listings, or at least at the very top.
After a lot of thought, research and sleepless nights, we came up with a small selection of new names. ACHSTRON® won the race. A combination of axis and electron (Greek for move, drive). It is pronounced like [aks.tron]. As our name is very important to us, we have registered it as a word mark.
The name ACHSTRON® describes very well what we do and what you can expect from us and we want to express this with this name.
