Alle Mitarbeiter der digital workbench gmbh vor einem modernen Gebäude

We believe in our skills and strengths, our team spirit and our passion for what we do. This belief is what drives us at digital workbench GmbH. We never rest, we are always evolving. When we established the company in 2014, our main focus and most of our expertise lay in the automotive sector. That’s where our technological roots are. Today, we leverage the expertise grown during those formative years and apply it to new areas: robotics as well as industrial and environmental technology. In the agricultural sector in particular, our customers benefit from our technological expertise and existing software and hardware components such as CAN bus modules, RTK GNSS receivers and sensor modules.

We are experts in digital technology applied to agricultural robotics, government and special-purpose vehicles, LoRa radio communications and industrial control systems.

We design, develop, test and manufacture your custom electronics applications as well as our own in house. You decide whether you want us to deliver individual packages or develop your project from the ground up.

“The future poses enormous ecological and economic challenges for the agricultural sector.

Rising labour costs for even simple tasks, the increasing ban on chemical agents, resistance in weeds and pests, saving resources, new requirements for occupational health and safety, and also the lack of qualified specialists require completely new approaches.

We are convinced that the key to the problem lies in automation.

Due to my agricultural background, I have always felt at home with agricultural topics. I know the potential but also the high requirements in the field of digital farming. For almost a decade digital workbench gmbh has been dedicated to digital technologies. And today we are proud to say: We are the experts in this field! Our team of experienced engineers and technicians in digitisation and automation is continuously working on innovative solutions for use in existing processes, among other things. To reduce the use of chemicals, to save time and scarce resources, to ensure sustainable food production and ultimately make an ecological contribution. For a future worth living. That’s what we, at digital workbench are passionate about!”
