Symestic GmbH

Symestic GmbH is a manufacturing software company headquartered in Dossenheim, Germany, founded by CEO Uwe Kobbert. It builds a cloud-native manufacturing execution system (MES) aimed at small and mid-sized factories that need production visibility without the cost and implementation time of traditional on-premise MES suites.

The subscription-based platform collects machine data via OPC UA, displays production KPIs and OEE on dashboards, manages alarms and scheduling, and connects to ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle and Dynamics 365; a mobile app lets supervisors monitor lines remotely. Symestic states its system connects more than 15,000 machines for customers including Yanfeng, Nidec, Brita, Flowserve and Neutrik across over 20 countries.
