What do you do when high-tech factories build state-of-the-art electronics, but the ESD measuring devices on the test bench still look like they're from the 90s?
We at KEINATH Electronic didn't just ask ourselves this question once. Rather, it was the starting point for something bigger: Our own ESD measuring and testing technology series, developed from practice for practice, with the aim of bringing real change to the industry.
We have been committed to professional ESD protection for almost three decades, not only as a manufacturer and specialist dealer, but also as an advisory partner for our customers. We accompany audits, advise on EPA planning and actively promote further development and practical suitability in standards committees and specialist groups.
„In many highly automated production environments, we encounter testing devices that can no longer keep up technically. They are difficult to operate, cannot be digitized and are simply out of date."
- Markus Keinath, from KEINATH Electronic
The realization was clear: measurement technology is a central pillar of every ESD protection zone. It must be reliable, comprehensible and technically up to date. However, many existing systems are too complex, too rigid, too analog and therefore no longer compatible with the requirements of modern production.
"We didn't just want to optimize, we wanted to turn the idea around. What does a measuring system look like if it is designed from the outset to meet today's requirements?"
- KEINATH development team
Together with experience from customers, partners and technical experts, our team began to develop a new generation of ESD measuring and testing devices. Oriented towards real work processes and measurably better in everyday use. This resulted in our 
sparktrap EPA Assessment Tools
„Many devices have so far only been developed from the point of view of the standard. We asked: What do people really need in the workplace and their daily working environment? What makes the application simple, safe and reproducible?"
- Product development KEINATH
All products in the range are consistently developed and manufactured by us in southern Germany. As an owner-managed family business based in the south of Baden-Württemberg, we consciously focus on short distances, local suppliers and responsible production.
„For us, Made in Germany is not a trend, but a conviction. For our customers, it means transparent processes, high quality standards, first-hand service - and genuine sustainability."
- Markus Keinath
Advantages at a glance:
Fast support through proximity and expertise
Stable supply chains thanks to local production
High quality control through development and production under one roof
Individual customization possible on customer request
What sets us apart from other providers is our background. We come from the field of ESD protection. Our devices are not created at a desk, but from specific requirements from everyday life, customer discussions, audits, training courses and application tests.
„We test our devices ourselves in the field, with real customers. That's why we know what works and what doesn't.“
- ESD expert team KEINATH
With our ESD measuring and testing technology series, we don't just want to replace existing systems. We want to make a contribution to future-proofing ESD protection. Reliable, traceable and technologically on a par with the rest of production.
„If our measurement and testing technology makes a difference in practice, in the audit and in everyday working life, then we have achieved our goal."
- KEINATH development team
What began as an idea from a conversation is now a complete product series. It combines technical innovation with practical relevance "Made in Germany", developed in the heart of Baden-Württemberg.
And we are far from finished...
