About BBE Bamberg + Bormann Electronic GmbH
BBE Bamberg + Bormann Electronic GmbH develops and manufactures industrial stroboscopes in Arnsberg for precise motion, speed and vibration analysis. The product portfolio includes portable handheld stroboscopes with battery or mains operation (xenon flash technology, frequency ranges up to 500 Hz or 30,000 RPM) as well as stationary devices for continuous monitoring in machines and test rigs. The devices enable non-contact measurement on rotating, oscillating or moving objects without interrupting production. In addition to standard products, BBE offers custom stroboscope solutions as well as support and spare parts for existing systems. Since 1997, the company has also handled the distribution of SIT spare parts (heating systems, stoves, commercial kitchen equipment) as a third business unit. The stroboscopes are used worldwide in maintenance, quality inspection, production monitoring and research, including in the paper and printing, textile, packaging and automotive industries as well as in mechanical engineering.
