Over 70 years of corporate history and more than 3,700 employees in 60 countries: Since its establishment as purely a trading company in the middle of the twentieth century, Lenze has developed into a globally leading automation company for mechanical engineering. Drawing on its solution expertise as a systems provider, Lenze develops with and for its customers high-quality mechatronic products, powerful systems consisting of hardware and software for successful automation and digitalization services in areas such as big data management, cloud and mobile solutions, as well as software to shape the Internet of Things (IoT).

But their activities do not focus exclusively on the marketing of products and services. The area of research and development is a further key area of their business and is pursued by their employees at a world-class level at eight international facilities. Lenze enjoys a decisive competitive advantage thanks to cooperation with IT and software specialists from encoway and logicline, the two digitalization subsidiaries of the company. This advantage will particularly come into play in connection with Strategy 2020+, as Lenze will increase its investments in the context of Industry 4.0 over the coming years, with the aim of further increasing sales and profitability.
