Technologies for progress and efficiency

When it comes to moving air efficiently, we see ourselves as a driver of innovation. As such, material and resource efficiency are hugely important to us. Together with our systems and solutions, this approach enables us to create added value not only for our customers, but also for the environment. As we move toward a circular economy, we are developing pioneering concepts that combine sustainability and technological innovation in unique ways.

Digital brilliance

At ebm‑papst, we consider digitalization to be one of the strongest levers available when it comes to sustainability. The Internet of Things and artificial intelligence are just two ways of achieving more efficient solutions.

Technologies
for intelligent solutions

Our efficient, low-noise and durable products have long offered users economic and ecological benefits. By using intelligent technologies and tools, we are realising even greater energy-saving potential while also opening up new ways of generating heat, moving air - and improving its quality. Our aim is to further increase the added value for our customers through our digital solutions.

From the first integrated electronics before the turn of the millennium to the latest networkable solutions: We bring digital added value to our customers' applications. From demand-orientated operation, remote monitoring and predictive maintenance to data-driven buildings with AI - together we find the solution that cuts costs, saves energy, reduces emissions and improves quality of life.

We rely on this:

  • Intelligent, networkable solutions
  • Data acquisition and processing using internal and external sensors and powerful electronics
  • Data transmission including interfaces, protocols, server and cloud connection
  • Data evaluation with in-house software, algorithms and product expertise
  • Continuous development of new technologies and solutions
  • Intuitive control through artificial intelligence and machine learning
  • Practical tools such as the FanScout fan selection programme

    Indoor air quality (IAQ) is a decisive factor for the health, well-being and productivity of people who spend time indoors - in their homes, at work, at school, in the supermarket or when visiting the doctor.

    ebm‑papst brings expertise from a wide range of applications in ventilation and air conditioning technology to the consideration of air quality. Intelligent fans, integrated sensors and soft sensors also provide valuable data. In addition, the innovative approaches of ebm‑papst neo offer specific products for controlling and optimising air quality.

    Our cloud solution collects data from existing systems, analyses it and derives value-adding actions from it. Algorithms learn from user behaviour, building characteristics and environmental conditions to create an optimised indoor ecosystem.

    Erich Kemmer pushes our fans to the limit at the Hollenbach test center

    Future-proof testing

    The test center in Hollenbach is a real powerhouse when it comes to testing capacity. Using state-of-the-art equipment, over 430 tests were carried out here in 2023 alone – in climate chambers, salt spray chambers, and other specialized environments. This high testing capacity enables us to test the quality and environmental compatibility of our products at the highest level while also further improving the efficiency of our processes. This ensures that every product meets ebm‑papst’s high standards.

    On the test bench

    Take a look behind the scenes at our in-house test center in Mulfingen-Hollenbach and see for yourself how we test our fans and drive modules under extreme conditions.

    Fresh retrofit

    Fresh retrofit

    The Emmi Group wants to replace the aging refrigeration installations in its logistics center with new EC fans from ebm‑papst. That’s no problem for our employees in Switzerland, because there’s no such thing as impossible.
