JAT – Jenaer Antriebstechnik GmbH

Like many success stories, that of JAT also has its beginning in a garage: Our
founders, pioneers with a vision, came from the global Zeiss corporation and had
the idea and the bravery to found a technology company after the fall of the Berlin
Wall. Jena drive technology thus began as a classic garage manufacture. The first
years were characterised by conquering a market that was unknown to us,
searching for and finding investors and customers who had faith in us, and
learning from the competitors. The result was a company that recognised its
employees as its most important resource from the very beginning. Our collective
goal: to be the technology specialist in the automation industry.
Even today, it is curiosity and passion that drive us. If a lens, a laser, a sensor or a
workpiece needs to be moved highly dynamically in the sub-micrometre range, we
will find the solution. Our 170 employees develop and manufacture servo
components and highly complex positioning and motion systems for customers
with demanding industrial applications.
Our claim to be a pioneer attracts customers who appreciate our interdisciplinary
and experienced development and manufacturing. In addition to our expertise,
what sets us apart as JAT is our passion for each and every project. We go the extra
mile, for our clients, their success, but also for ourselves.
A positive and cordial cooperation between our employees, our customers and our
partners is the core of our company philosophy. Open cooperation, transparency
and a constructive feedback culture create sustainable solutions and long-term
business relationships. At the same time, our own responsibility is deeply rooted
in all of us. Thinking and acting globally, we are firmly rooted in Jena and the
region. That’s why we are wholeheartedly involved in various associations as a
sponsor and advisor, support the climate and mobility revolution and promote
young inventors.
JAT. Experience Precision and Passion.
