Producing innovative ideas provide the motivation power for our success. Continual market surveillance and close cooperation with our customers ensure that we concern ourselves with requirements for new products and developments of existing product spectrum and consistently convert them into practical and market-oriented products.

A high-qualified team being intensively involved in research and development, a large vertical integration of manufacturing and the adjoined prototype building allow us to respond to our customers' demands in a fast and uncomplicated manner.

We have secured patents for numerous of inventions we have made relating to the electronics and mechanical design field. For example, both the circuit logic and the closing mechanism for the Navigator type short-circuit indicator for overhead lines are patented.

Today modern electronic devices have been added to the electro-mechanical short-circuit indicators the company produced at its starting time. Many of the new functions are only ensured by use of high-performance microprocessors. The high life expectancy of our devices which is very well known from our mechanical systems can be provided by intelligent circuits and algorithms.

The remote indication of short-circuit faults via radio receivers is part of the HORSTMANN product spectrum for many years. Today, we increasingly use the modern and widespread GSM technology. On this basis we are able to respond to today's requirements by providing complete short-circuit detection and indication systems and taking and utilizing this modern techniques for the advantage of our customers.
