As an experienced automation partner, gefeba has been setting benchmarks in industrial automation for decades. Our extensive expertise across the Siemens automation portfolio—from SIMATIC PLCs and SINAMICS drive systems to advanced HMI and visualization solutions—makes us the ideal partner for demanding machine and plant automation projects.
We develop tailor-made, future-proof automation solutions that deliver reliable performance, maximum efficiency, and seamless integration with your specific process requirements.
Skills
Our expertise covers the entire process of developing automation software in the Siemens TIA Portal—from engineering and programming through commissioning.
- SIMATIC S7-1200, S7-1500, and S7-300/400
- Complex Sequence Controls
- Process Logic, Safety Functions, and Diagnostic Systems
- Modular, easy-to-maintain software architectures that comply with current industry standards
Drawing on decades of experience, we deliver software that is not only reliable in operation but also easy to maintain, understand, and expand throughout the system lifecycle.
Efficient drive systems are at the core of many industrial processes. gefeba has extensive experience in the engineering and integration of customized drive solutions—from initial design through commissioning. Every solution is precisely tailored to the requirements of the respective application to ensure maximum performance, energy efficiency, and operational reliability.
- Single-axis and multi-axis applications
- Positioning and closed-loop control applications
- Energy-efficient drive concepts
- Optimal drive system sizing and parameterization
Our solutions combine dynamic motion performance with maximum process reliability.
- Siemens SINAMICS drive Family (G120, S120, S210, G150, G130)
- SEW-Eurodrive frequency converters
- Danfoss and ABB variable-frequency drives
- Servo drive and positioning systems from leading manufacturers
At the field level is where our expertise stands out. We integrate field devices, industrial communication networks, and communication protocols—regardless of manufacturer, age, complexity, or technology generation. For decades, we have been reliably connecting everything that needs to communicate within an industrial plant.
Whether modern Industrial Ethernet architectures, established fieldbus systems, or specialized process automation technologies, our engineers understand the OT environment and ensure that every component is securely and reliably integrated into the overall system architecture.

Although Siemens technology represents a significant part of our daily work, we deliberately remain an independent system integrator. We are not committed to a specific manufacturer—we are committed to delivering the best solution for your plant. Whether PLCs, drive systems, visualization platforms, or specialized hardware, we quickly become proficient with new technologies and integrate diverse systems into a robust overall architecture.
Thanks to our broad project experience, high technical standards, and ability to rapidly adapt to new technologies, we can reliably integrate even uncommon or manufacturer-specific systems into complete automation solutions. This flexibility is what makes us a trusted long-term partner for many of our customers.
