The STM Sensor Technologie München GmbH is a young and innovative company founded as a spin off from a university research project. Guided by the conviction that the general trend in sensors leads to ever decreasing size and higher performing products, STM from its very beginning followed the track of miniaturization. Building on its project-based experience, STM succeeded in developing manufacturing procedures to match the increasing demands of component-integration without compromising optical performance. Through the use of high performance optics and highly flexible electrical conductors, STM pursues a technologically superior approach to the use of fiber optics. Therefore, STM maintains a unique position among the competition.

Through Beam Sensors, Reflective Sensors, Fork Sensors, Optical Frame Sensors and Measuring and Profiling Scanners made by STM are used in nearly all areas of industrial automation. STM-products are found in CD and Data Storage equipment, Semiconductor Industries, Textile Industries, Special Machine Building and Robotics equipment, Packaging and Paper Industries, Food and Beverages Industries, Aerospace, Automotive Industries.

Besides the range of standard STM-products, custom solutions designed by STM Applied Development are an important part of the STM program. With its international network of technologically competent sales partners, STM is a professional and globally acting Technology Company accumulating know-how to benefit its customers.
