About Us

Contract Design &
Manufacturing Organization

A promising idea alone is not enough. It must be implemented reliably, securely and in a market-ready manner. This is exactly where DITABIS comes in. For almost 30 years, we have been helping companies in the medical technology, diagnostics and life sciences sectors to turn their visions into practical products.

Our customers often face the same challenge: they need more than just a service provider – they need a partner who understands technology, provides regulatory certainty and reliably guides them through all phases. DITABIS is that partner.

DITABIS – Digital Biomedical Imaging Systems AG was founded in 1996 by Hermann Leistner and Dr. Christof Steiner as a spin-off of what is now Stratec SE. Over the years, the company quickly grew beyond the normal imaging and bioanalysis sector. Since the mid-2010s, DITABIS AG has focused on its role as a service provider for development and production with a focus on medical and laboratory technologies. We now also apply our expertise and highly trained specialists to many other industrial sectors, including robotics, automation and defence. Wherever precision, quality and expertise are required, DITABIS can support you and your project.

What Sets Us Apart:

Everything from a single source:

From conception and ISO 13485-compliant development to series production and long-term support.

Technical depth and breadth:

Mechanics, electronics, firmware, software, regulatory affairs – our team covers the entire spectrum for your project.

Regulatory certainty:

MDR, IVDR, CE, FDA – we consider approval right from the start.

Cooperation based on partnership:

Direct contacts, short communication channels and the flexibility of a medium-sized company.

Our Position

We don’t just develop devices – we build trust. DITABIS sees itself as a team mate that works with you to develop solutions. Whether it’s further developing existing systems, taking on third-party projects or realising completely new product ideas: we think in terms of generations, variants and life cycles.

Location With Strategic Advantage

Our company headquarters on “Wilferdinger Höhe” in Pforzheim offers the ideal infrastructure: a central location in the southern German medical technology cluster, excellent transport links to the motorway and rail network, and proximity to important suppliers and partners. These location advantages enable rapid coordination, short delivery times and close cooperation with customers at home and abroad.

Management and Supervision

The company is managed by a dedicated executive team that combines technical expertise with entrepreneurial vision. Together with an experienced supervisory board that supports and strengthens the long-term strategy, DITABIS’ focus on sustainable growth, technological excellence and customer proximity is assured.

Why DITABIS?

Because your idea deserves more than just a concept. It deserves a partner who takes it seriously, understands it technically and brings it to series production – quickly, reliably and seamlessly.
