About Sarissa
Sarissa GmbH is a technology provider specializing in manufacturing assistance and position detection systems, headquartered in Weingarten (Baden-Württemberg). Its core product is the Sarissa Local Positioning System (LPS), which is based on ultrasonic technology and determines the 3D spatial coordinates of tools and hands in space with millimeter accuracy. Building on this, the company offers QualityAssist, an operator guidance system that acts as an electronic work instruction, monitoring and correcting quality-relevant hand movements without contact (Poka Yoke). The portfolio includes the PositionBox as an xyz coordinate sensor, the Tool Module for position detection on tools from any manufacturer, the Grip Module for hand position detection, and wireless tool transmitters. Screwdriving processes are documented seamlessly with torque, position and time data; integration with CAQ and ERP systems is possible. Customers come mainly from the automotive industry and its suppliers, the aviation industry, and general industry. Sales are handled through the company's own staff and sales partners in Europe, Asia, South America and the USA. The company was founded in 2010 by Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Volker Jauch and employs around ten people.

Technologies & Systems
Local Positioning System
Ultrasonic-based system for millimeter-accurate 3D localization of any objects such as tools and hands in space.
QualityAssist
Operator guidance system that acts as an electronic work instruction, monitoring hand movements and tool positions and documenting screwdriving processes seamlessly.
PositionBox
xyz coordinate sensor that calculates the spatial coordinates of tools or hands and also serves as a pure coordinate provider for automation technology.
Tool Module
Ultrasonic transmitting unit that can be mounted on tools from any manufacturer and prevents incorrect positioning or step sequence.
Grip Module
Module for millimeter-accurate position determination of the operator's hands at the manual workstation.
Wireless Tool Transmitter
Wireless transmitting unit weighing just 34 grams with up to 12 hours of runtime and USB-C charging, which reduces installation effort.

Quality & Certification
The quality assurance systems enable zero-defect production (Poka Yoke), in which quality inspection already takes place during the manufacturing process and final inspection is eliminated. The company has been certified to DIN ISO 9001:2015 since October 2022.
