In early 2013 KEBA took over a majority position in the Dutch automation company DELEM with headquarters in Eindhoven.

Innovation
All of our thinking is focused on the world of tomorrow.
The design for success at KEBA is based on the company's great innovative strength and the high quality standards for the products and services.
Numerous awards are a clear signal for the company's innovative strength on many levels and the appreciation for our employees' commitment. -
Integrated value creation
Everything from one source
The standardized value creation process at KEBA starts with consulting for hardware and software and ranges from system design and architecture to a maximum depth of development. This consistency is continued in the production that does more than comply with the highest quality demands. It also ensures the greatest possible flexibility and not least for higher cost efficiency.
The intensive cooperation of departments from the very start is another success factor in our value creation chain. In this way, we connect the experiences and expertise of other industries, find analogies, and use them in our development partnerships. -
Hardware and software development
Professionalism and the highest quality standards are a matter of course
Modern software engineering combined with the latest software technology with advanced development principles can turn the most complex of tasks into high-performing, robust, and maintainable system solutions with long service lives.
Security, reliability, and system availability have the highest priority in the development of our products – always coordinated to the specific requirements and norms of our international customers.
Our quality monitoring is in place from the first draft to the finished product. -
Production
Highest manufacturing quality
Our production meets the continually increasing requirements of our customers for speed and supply capability.
"Breathing capacity", flow production, standardized work processes, and permanent optimization of the throughput times make us flexible so that we can always respond to our customer's wishes.
