Family-owned since 1985.
SB-Elektronik develops and manufactures electronics for industry. Now in its second generation, with the AI division SALTIR under the same roof.


Family business
41 years. One family.
Founded in Balingen by Burkhard Stäbler in 1985, now run together in the second generation. Short paths, fixed contacts and decisions made in-house.

Team
People. Not a hotline.
Some of the people you work with at SB-Elektronik, standing in for many. With us, you know who knows your project, and you write straight to the right person.

Natalie
Administration and customer serviceThe first point of contact for many of our customers. Natalie knows where your order stands, and who in the house has the answer to your question.
- Where is my order?
- Who is my contact person?
- Can we adjust the delivery date?
- How does an enquiry work?

Tobias
DevelopmentTobias is a big fan of Gyro Gearloose. So when asked whether something is technically feasible, his answer is usually: yes.
- Is this technically feasible?
- How does an idea become a prototype?
- Can it be smaller, lighter, cheaper?
- Which components are available?

Jenny
ProductionJenny is the Swiss Army knife of our production. Just considerably better organised.
- When will my sample be ready?
- Do you assemble SMD and THT?
- Does my quantity fit a small series?
- When does my assembly ship?

Makkaroni
Feel-good managerMakkaroni makes sure nobody sits at their desk for too long. Core skill: hearing a Leberkäs bun being unwrapped anywhere in the building.
- Freezer inspector
- Chief Cuddle Officer
- Head of break culture
Makkaroni does not answer emails. Please leave treats at reception.
Just a glimpse
Behind them, a whole team.
Natalie, Tobias and Jenny are three of many. They work alongside colleagues in development, production, quality assurance and administration, backed by a well-established partner network in Germany and Asia.
Our networkEngineers on the shop floor. Not consultants in a boardroom.
The same engineers who work on the plant put the model into operation. Short cycles instead of rounds of alignment.
- Substance over hype
- We only recommend what we can build, integrate and operate ourselves.
- System responsibility
- Technology, processes, data and usage belong together. A project doesn't end with a handover slide.
- Operations built in
- Measurable value is what counts. We always ask: who will run this in two years, and how?
- Long-term partnership
- Service, updates and redesign are part of the business model, not an add-on.

Balingen, Zollernalb district.
This is home to development, assembly, testing and management of the partner network. We are happy to arrange a visit.
Let's get acquainted.
Electronics, series or AI: the first conversation clarifies whether and how we can help.
