The Future of Manufacturing
Our competence and experience helps businesses to boost their productivity and flexibility, while at the same time reducing costs and risks. We develop and optimise industrial production processes and help companies avoid bad decisions, thus reducing planning overhead.

We design the future of manufacturing: precision and micro-assembly, automation down to a batch size of 1, industrial image processing, elimination of noise and vibration – to name just a few examples. On top of this, PROFACTOR can draw on a wealth of know-how in researching and the development of alternative power systems, process development for functional surfaces, and the production of micro and nanostructures.

Austria’s no. 1 in applied manufacturing research
In 10 years the PROFACTOR Group has grown from a 4-person research team to Austria’s no. 1 in applied production research. More than 100 employees at our facilities in Steyr and Seibersdorf develop new technologies and solutions for manufacturing businesses. Our reference list includes a wide range of companies from global players such as TRUMPF, Siemens VAI, and BMW Motors to innovative businesses such as Kaba Austria, Anger, weba or IH-Tech.

PROFACTOR's research is supported by the EU, the federal government, the state of Upper Austria, and the town of Steyr.
