German assembly & test automation specialist in Freiberg am Neckar, founded 1976; part of Dürr Group's Production Automation Business Unit since 2023.
BBS Automation Stuttgart GmbH, headquartered in Freiberg am Neckar near Stuttgart, Germany, is one of Europe's leading developers and manufacturers of customized assembly and test systems. The company traces its roots to 1976 when it was founded as teamtechnik, originally developing high-tech production systems for demanding industrial sectors. Over nearly five decades, it built a reputation for sophisticated automation lines serving automotive, medical technology, solar energy, and consumer electronics markets.
In 2021, Dürr Group acquired teamtechnik as part of its strategy to expand its Production Automation capabilities. In 2023, the teamtechnik, BBS, Kahle, and HEKUMA brands were formally unified into a single Production Automation Business Unit within the Dürr Group, which operates 20 sites worldwide and employs approximately 2,500 people. From June 2025, all entities operate under the unified brand name 'BBS Automation.' The Stuttgart entity (BBS Automation Stuttgart GmbH) specifically employs around 500 people at its Freiberg am Neckar facility.
The company's core product portfolio spans insertion and removal technology, feeder systems, assembly and test lines, winding systems, and palletizing solutions. These systems are deployed in the e-mobility sector (battery assembly, electric drive components), life sciences (medical devices, diagnostics consumables), and new energy (solar stringer systems, fuel cell components). BBS Automation Stuttgart also delivers functional test stands and end-of-line testing systems.
In terms of quality assurance, BBS Automation systems are designed to meet stringent international standards, including FDA, cGMP, and ISO 13485 requirements for medical device manufacturing lines. The Freiberg location produces highly customized solutions for international OEM clients across Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific.
The company's official website, previously at teamtechnik.com, now redirects to bbsautomation.com, reflecting the unified corporate branding effective since mid-2025.
