Our history. Professionalism, passion and innovative spirit, coupled with cutting edge technology.
Schnaidt GmbH was founded in 1989 by Margrit and Helmut Schnaidt, based in Herrenberg ( near Stuttgart). Initially specialising in the manufacture of soldering masks for the wave soldering of populated assemblies, the product portfolio quickly expanded to include assembly holders for separating electronic assemblies.
Nowadays
Schnaidt GmbH is now a leading supplier of equipment for electronics production. With customers from the telecommunications, medical and energy technology, automotive and aviation industries as well as assembly service providers.
Today, Schnaidt GmbH not only produces equipment at three locations with around 80 employees, but also offers solutions for the entire process, testing and automation technology in electronics production. In addition to Germany, Schnaidt GmbH is represented throughout Europe, either directly or via well-known partners, and sells its products worldwide.
