History
Started small - become big - stay innovative
For more than 60 years, burster has been producing sensors and process measuring devices to the highest quality standards.

With a car and a typewriter as start-up capital, Irmgard and Hubert Burster start selling precision measuring instruments.

The company headquarters are opened in Gernsbach, where they are still based today.

As a pioneer in measurement technology, burster presents the DIGOMAT® 7601, the first fully automatic digital ohmmeter on the world market.

With the SEMMEG® measurement amplifier, burster has created a system for modular sensor signal acquisition and processing.

The need for low-cost sensors sources the starting signal for in-house production of sensors based on strain gauge technology.
Accredited calibration laboratory of the DKD received the confirmation and from now on was a calibrating institute of the German Calibration Service (DKD) by the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB).

The first microprocessor device DIGISTANT® 4405 is developed: The world's first portable calibrator was sold 5,000 times in over 35 years.
Burster's precision measurement technology is used in the physicist Klaus von Klitzing's discovery of the quantum Hall effect.

Development of the first bus-compatible pressure transducer on the world market.
Our commitment to product quality was confirmed early on with certification in accordance with the ISO 9001 quality standard.

Laser welding and clean room technology have enabled further milestones to be set in burster production.
After 10 years in the company, the founder's son, Matthias Burster, takes over the management of the company.

Production of the first torque sensor: successive expansion of the product portfolio since then

Further development of the DIGIFORCE® as one of the most versatile evaluation and display devices.

Development of the MySensor series as a range of customised OEM solutions
With the measurement of anliegend, burster strengthens its expertise in calibration and establishes itself as one of the best accredited laboratories in Germany.

New introduction of the tempometer for high-precision resistance measurement technology in process automation.
Entering the market for automated battery measurement technology: a strong companion for the mobility and energy transition.
The company has announced that it has joined the English discoverIE group of companies based in Greater London. The integration into the international electronics group opens up new opportunities for global growth and technological development for the company.
We will continue to work on setting new standards with burster measurement technology made in Gernsbach.
