On November 11th, DMB Technics AG proudly celebrates its 20th anniversary. The company was founded in 2005 by two engineers and an accountant. The engineers brought deep expertise in display technologies, while the accountant contributed sharp financial knowledge. Together, they formed a powerful team with a shared vision—and DMB Technics was born. What began as a trio of specialists has grown into a successful medium-sized company with around 35 employees. One of the founding engineers, Dieter Heimgartner, is still actively involved in the daily business and remains as Chairman of the Board. He played a key role in the development of STN technology and is co-owner of the globally significant STN patent.
In the display world, brilliant colors and fast refresh rates often take center stage. Yet for many industrial, medical, or smart applications, other values matter most: ultra-low power consumption, excellent readability in sunlight, and maximum design flexibility. This is exactly where E-Paper displays shine – especially as customized end-to-end solutions developed by DMB Technics.
DMB Technics AG from Hünenberg, Switzerland, is preparing for the future: After 20 successful years as CEO and CMO, Dieter Heimgartner and Christa Barmettler are handing over their executive positions to the new management team. As of April 1, 2025, Joël Heimgartner will take over as CEO. Together with Philipp Achermann as CSO, Janine Flückiger as CFO, and Raphael Maurer as CTO, the new management team will lead DMB Technics AG into its next phase of growth. All management members have been long-standing employees of DMB Technics, ensuring a smooth internal succession. Both Dieter Heimgartner and Christa Barmettler will remain with the company as President and Board Member, ensuring continuity and stability.
Three days full of exciting conversations, new contacts and groundbreaking technologies – the Embedded World 2025 in Nuremberg was a great success! DMB Technics presented cutting-edge display technologies and innovative HMI-Solutions that attracted numerous industry visitors. From ultra-high-resolution Micro-LED displays to flexible AMOLED technology and interactive transparent displays, the stand offered a comprehensive insight into the future of the display industry.
Die Display-Technologie hat in den letzten Jahrzehnten eine beeindruckende Entwicklung durchlaufen. Nach LCD-, TFT und OLED-Displays gilt Micro-LED als der nächste grosse Fortschritt. Diese Technologie bietet viele Vorteile wie höhere Helligkeit, besseren Kontrast, längere Lebensdauer und eine energieeffizientere Funktionsweise. Allerdings sind die Herausforderungen bei der Massenproduktion noch erheblich. In diesem Artikel werfen wir einen detaillierten Blick auf die Funktionsweise, Vorteile, Anwendungsgebiete und Zukunftsperspektiven der Micro-LED-Technologie.
Embedded World 2025 – Experience the newest technologies at DMB Technics! From March 11-13, 2025, it's that time again: DMB Technics AG invites you to visit us at Embedded World in Nuremberg. Discover the latest technologies and innovations that will shape the future of human-machine interaction in Hall 1, Booth 1-356.
Where innovation meets expertise Electronica 2024 was an outstanding success for DMB Technics – characterised by a lively exchange, technological progress and a large number of exciting projects. Our booth became a central attraction for visitors interested in the latest display and HMI solutions. With a clear message, we demonstrated that innovation and expertise go hand in hand at DMB.
The Active Matrix OLED (AMOLED) technology has established itself as an advanced display solution that is used in mobile devices, wearables, televisions and industrial HMIs. AMOLED uses organic materials to generate light, along with an active matrix of thin-film transistors (TFTs) to enable precise control of each pixel. This combination offers better picture quality, higher energy efficiency and more flexible design options than traditional technologies such as TFT LCD displays.
In the world of display technology, there are some milestones that shape entire industries. This year marks the 40th anniversary of one of them: the granting of the patent for super-twisted nematic (STN) technology in 1984. The person behind this patent is Dieter Heimgartner, co-inventor of STN technology and founder of DMB Technics AG in Hünenberg, Switzerland. With his expertise and innovative spirit, he laid the foundations for the success of this groundbreaking technology and his company.
