Drive technology since 1924

GEORGII KOBOLD is a family-owned company for electromechanical drive technology based in Horb am Neckar, established in 1924. The company manufactures servo synchronous motors, servo asynchronous motors, torque motors, gear motors with planetary and bevel gearboxes, magnetic gear motors with contactless power transmission as well as drive electronics and servo controllers. A product focus is stainless steel servo motors and gear motors in Hygienic Design according to EHEDG guidelines with protection ratings up to IP69K, resistant to aggressive cleaning and disinfection agents. Manufacturing includes motor construction, gear technology, electronics and customer-specific special designs. Complete solutions are offered through the group companies Rotax GmbH (gear teeth), magnetica GmbH (magnetic gearboxes), Mattke GmbH (system integration) and esitron-electronic GmbH (control and automation technology). Main customers come from the food, pharmaceutical and medical technology industries as well as machine and plant engineering.
