DarkFabAutomation GmbH combines years of industry experience with modern automation, intelligent software and efficient material flow solutions.
We are a young company with experienced minds and a clear ambition: to make production and logistics processes simpler, more efficient and future-proof. We think holistically.
From a single machine to automated systems and production lines, all the way to the connected Dark Factory, we combine classic automation technology, software, data and autonomous mobile robotics (AMR) into individual solutions.
We don't just automate processes. We develop solutions that make people, machines and companies better.

– from a single machine to the connected Dark Factory.
Young in thinking. Experienced in doing.
DarkFab is a young company with experienced minds.
For more than ten years we have been developing automation solutions for production. In doing so, we benefit from the decades of production know-how of the Stecher Group. What emerges is a unique combination: technological curiosity meets genuine experience from industrial practice.
We don't just know the theory behind automated processes.
We know what really matters in production.
We think holistically.
An automated production line isn't made up of a single machine. It emerges from the interplay of people, automation, software, data and material flow.
That's why we don't just look at individual process steps. We think about the entire workflow.
From the first process analysis through planning and engineering to commissioning and further development, we accompany our customers as a fullservice partner.
This creates solutions that don't just work technically, but make a real difference in daily operation.
„ A solution is only good once it works in the long run. ”
Our Strengths
What sets us apart
We think in solutions
We don't just deliver individual components, but well thought-out complete solutions that fit your requirements technically and economically.
We think ahead
We keep an eye on new technologies and use them where they create real value for your production.
We develop in-house
With our own MCS software and solutions we develop ourselves, we stay independent and flexible – for your individual requirements.
We decide quickly
Flat hierarchies and short decision paths keep your project moving forward quickly.
We stay close by
From the first analysis to ongoing operation, we accompany you personally – with a dedicated point of contact.
We work openly
Design, electrical planning, software, project management, assembly and commissioning work closely together with us – for solutions from a single source.
Step by Step
From a single process to the Dark Factory.
Not every company needs to automate the entire factory right away.
We believe in a different path:
Step by step. A single process. An automated station. A robot cell. An intelligent material flow. A connected production.
Our goal is the Dark Factory: a production where machines, software, data and material flow work together intelligently, making autonomous processes possible.
A modern Dark Factory begins with a reliable automation foundation.
We plan and implement classic automation solutions for machines, systems and production processes – from control technology, sensors and actuators to robotics and complex system and production automation.
We build digital solutions and intelligent material flows on top of that foundation. This is how we combine proven automation technology with modern technologies and create solutions that work technically while delivering real value in daily operation.
Intelligence
Our MCS – the flexible Dark Factory foundation
A key part of our solution portfolio is our own MCS software (Matrix Control System).
"The software doesn't dictate the process. The customer defines their process."
With MCS, companies can digitalize and automate their existing workflows independently or together with DarkFab. Processes can be mapped individually, automated step by step, and adjusted or extended at any time as requirements change.
The result isn't a rigid software solution that the company has to adapt to. The software adapts to the customer's processes. MCS connects processes, employees, machines, systems, AMR and other systems, creating a flexible foundation.
Fullservice
Everything from a single source.
Automation needs more than good technology. It needs a partner who understands the whole project and takes responsibility.
At DarkFab, we support you through every phase — with one central point of contact and a well-rehearsed team. Fewer interfaces. Shorter paths. Faster decisions.
