in the company's history:

The 40th anniversary!

40 years of TL Electronic

We started in the display sector 40 years ago and quickly added new product areas such as video signal generators, video film recorders, vehicle-grade monitors, industrial keyboards, etc. 20 years ago, industrial PCs, panel PCs and LCDs as well as monitors and accessories were the five strategic business areas with which TL Electronic was able to consolidate and expand its position in the market. Today the portfolio also includes a wide range of mobile computing products - from PDAs to rugged tablets and rugged laptops.

Quality instead of quantity

has always been our primary goal: tailor-made, high-quality products at a reasonable price. "Our goal is to provide our customers with a smooth, fast and reliable production process with our know-how, our high-quality products and our technical support." This original quote from managing director Stefan Götz still reflects the company philosophy today.

Own product line

TL Electronic's product lines were and are characterized by high-quality devices for industrial needs that stand out from the competition through quality and tailor-made special solutions. This concept, combined with fast and reliable support, will be pursued relentlessly. Industry expertise is constantly growing and more and more innovative special solutions are emerging for hygienically or environmentally sensitive industries.
