Our History

1990

The Founding

Faude GbR was founded in 1990 by Ute and Dieter Faude as a service provider for electrical planning.

1992

The first change of name

As a result of increased demand, the name was changed for the first time to Faude Automatisierungstechnik GmbH, including the expansion of the range of services to include software development for automation systems.

2005

The first system partnership

As a result of many years of software and automation development for the various Bosch plants, Faude became a “Bosch Rexroth system integrator.”

2010

The first cobot

When the up-and-coming cobot manufacturer Universal Robots was looking for sales and integration partners in 2010, Faude was selected by UR as the first “preferred partner” in Germany and a long-term partnership was established.

2015

Getting started with KUKA

Thanks to the outstanding success in advising and integrating UR Cobots in the German market, KUKA Systems became aware of Faude and got involved financially. KUKA Systems benefited from Faude's knowledge of human-robot collaboration (MRK) to use KUKA system solutions in the automotive industry.

2021

Separation of KUKA and transfer to Faude Tec GmbH

KUKA's focus was increasingly shifting from system solutions to KUKA robot sales, which is why the objectives of Faude Automatisierungstechnik GmbH and KUKA no longer fit together optimally. In 2021, KUKA then left the company and changed its name to Faude Tec GmbH.
