Core offering

GEPA develops and sells customized intelligent sensors, condition monitoring systems (MOM series), and IoT solutions (WOTSPOT®) for industrial condition monitoring and predictive maintenance. The company provides integrated measurement and analysis solutions — combining proprietary hardware (vibration, temperature, MEMS-based 3D acceleration sensors) with software algorithms (FFT analysis, networked databases) — primarily targeting wind energy, automotive, aerospace, and civil infrastructure operators. The offerings include stand-alone autonomous monitoring systems, custom hardware/software development projects, and IoT-based smart-control platforms.

Product overview

GEPA GmbH offers a modular measurement technology portfolio centered on its Mobile Measurement Systems (MOM) family and the WOTSPOT® IoT brand. The MOM product line includes Condition Monitoring systems for continuous vibration and temperature analysis, analog measurement systems for material testing, foundation monitoring for wind turbines and civil structures, and mobile control interfaces. The WOTSPOT® brand provides IoT solutions for M2M communication, mobile marketing, and meeting/conference applications. Intelligent sensors with integrated FFT analysis and the 3D ACC MEMS-based acceleration sensor complement the hardware portfolio. Products are characterized by 'Made in Germany' quality and target predictive maintenance, structural health monitoring, and Industry 4.0 applications.

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• MEMSENSORScoreTechnology or IntegrationGEPA partners with MEMSENSORS to jointly exhibit at SENSOR+TEST trade fairs (2016 and 2017). MEMSENSORS supplies high-resolution 3-axis acceleration and tilt sensors ('3D ACC') which GEPA integrates into their measurement and monitoring solutions. The partnership enables GEPA to offer combined hardware solutions featuring MEMS-based ultra-low frequency sensors (0.0–10 Hz) alongside their proprietary analysis algorithms and condition monitoring systems.

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• ADI (Analog Devices, Inc.): Major analog/MEMS sensor and signal-conditioning semiconductor vendor serving industrial condition-monitoring applications; a potential upstream supplier or technology competitor to GEPA's intelligent sensor platform in the industrial IoT space.

Broad incumbents

• SKF (Condition Monitoring): Global bearing and rotating-equipment giant with a significant condition-monitoring and wireless-sensor portfolio; competes with GEPA in industrial machinery and wind-turbine drivetrain monitoring but at vastly larger scale and as part of a broader services offering.
• National Instruments (NI): Global test & measurement platform (data acquisition, modular instruments, software) used widely in automotive, aerospace and structural test labs; overlaps with GEPA's analog measurement systems and structural-test deployments at much larger scale.
• Schaeffler (Condition Monitoring / OPTIME): Automotive and industrial supplier with a growing digital condition-monitoring business (OPTIME wireless sensors); comparable to GEPA in vibration-based predictive maintenance for industrial and wind assets, though bundled with bearing and service offerings.
• ifm Electronic: German industrial-sensor specialist with strong presence in vibration/condition monitoring, IO-Link and IoT — comparable to GEPA's industrial sensor and WOTSPOT® IoT positioning, with much broader product breadth and global sales coverage.

Direct peers

• PCB Piezotronics: US-based manufacturer of piezoelectric and MEMS vibration, acoustic and shock sensors for industrial, aerospace and automotive test applications — directly overlapping GEPA's core intelligent-sensor and condition-monitoring offering.
• Brüel & Kjær (HBK): Hottinger Brüel & Kjær is the leading global specialist in vibration, acoustic and structural test & measurement — directly comparable to GEPA's vibration analysis, FFT and condition-monitoring capabilities, though at significantly larger scale.
• HBM (HBK Test & Measurement): Specialist in industrial test & measurement, data acquisition and sensor technology for structural, fatigue and powertrain testing; close functional overlap with GEPA's MOM analog measurement systems and structural-health monitoring product lines.
• Brüel & Kjær Vibro: Specialist division focused on rotating-machinery vibration monitoring for power generation, oil & gas and wind; directly comparable to GEPA's MOM Condition Monitoring Systems in continuous vibration surveillance of wind turbines and industrial assets.
• Kistler Group: Swiss manufacturer of piezoelectric sensors, force plates and measurement systems for engine/crash testing and process monitoring; comparable to GEPA's automotive engine/powertrain testing and industrial pressure/acceleration sensor portfolio.
