About FOERSTER

A Legacy of Precision. A Future of Innovation.

FOERSTER combines deep engineering expertise with a profound understanding of industrial testing processes. Using eddy current, magnetic field analysis, ultrasound, thermography, and highly sensitive sensor technology, we deliver solutions for demanding sectors – including metal production, automotive, aerospace, medical technology, petrochemicals, energy, research, and archaeology.

Our portfolio ranges from handheld instruments to fully integrated inspection lines for serial production and safety-critical components. At the core of our technologies are our sensors: precise, robust, and often handcrafted, enabling sensitivity and repeatability that set international standards.

We support our customers throughout the entire lifecycle – from initial analysis and feasibility studies to co-development, system integration, training, global service, and long-term support. Our mission: reliable inspection processes, maximum operational safety, informed decision-making, and measurable quality – every single day.

FOERSTER is more than a technology provider – we are a long-term partner. Our actions are guided by responsibility: toward our customers, our employees, our suppliers, and the industries we have supported for decades. Our culture is grounded, technology-driven, and focused on the future.
