Hilscher – Your Partner in Industrial Communication

Hattersheim, 31 August 2026 – Hilscher has expanded its new generation of Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)-compliant PCI Express cifX PC cards based on the netX 90 system-on-chip (SoC) with new variants featuring a PROFIBUS DP interface. This brings the established fieldbus protocol to Hilscher’s latest PC card platform, combining support for legacy industrial networks with today’s requirements for cybersecurity and long-term availability.

Hattersheim, 26 August 2026 – Hilscher Gesellschaft für Systemautomation mbH is celebrating its 40th anniversary. Founded by Hans-Jürgen Hilscher in 1986 and now led by Sebastian Hilscher, the company has become a leading global provider of multiprotocol-capable and secure communication solutions.
Join us on 12 September 2026 for our Open House, we are looking forward to celebrate this special occasion with you! 

Hattersheim, 10 August 2026 – Hilscher Gesellschaft für Systemautomation mbH is certified according to ISO/IEC 27001. The internationally recognized standard confirms a systematic information security management system and builds trust in the secure handling of sensitive information. At the same time, the certification strengthens the basis for regulatory requirements such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the NIS2 Directive.

Hattersheim am Main, 3 August 2026 – Six apprentices and two year-long interns are starting the new training year at Hilscher. They will gain their first practical experience in commercial, logistics, IT, and technical departments. Experienced trainers will support them throughout this process. In this way, Hilscher is investing specifically in the skilled professionals of tomorrow.

Hattersheim, 23 July 2026 – Hilscher's embedded communication module netRAPID 90IC has been nominated for the AutomationsBest Award 2026 presented by Wiley Industry News. The nomination recognizes the module's innovative approach to integrating secure, multi-protocol industrial communication into compact field devices.

Hattersheim, 17 July 2026 – Hilscher’s embedded communication module comX 90 has been named “Most Competitive Innovative Product of the Year” by the Chinese Association of Automation (CAA). Presented annually to solutions that advance industrial communication and digital manufacturing, this accolade underscores the module’s technological excellence.

Hattersheim, 8 July 2026 – As part of a strategic realignment of its Industrial IoT partnerships, Hilscher will conclude its collaboration with the Open Industry 4.0 Alliance. After many years of successful cooperation as a founding member and active contributor, the company is sharpening its strategic focus while expressing its sincere appreciation for the constructive partnership.

Hattersheim, 1 July 2026 – With the conclusion of the Factory-X project, Hilscher draws a positive conclusion. From the communication specialist’s perspective, the consortium significantly reduced a key obstacle to industrial digitalization over the past two and a half years: data spaces are becoming a practical approach for collaboration across companies on the shop floor.

Hattersheim, 11 June 2026 – Teleconnect GmbH and Hilscher Gesellschaft für Systemautomation mbH have entered into a strategic development partnership to realize customer projects based on Hilscher technology.

Hattersheim, 5 June 2026 – On World Environment Day on 5 June, Hilscher is highlighting a concrete sustainability step from within its own company: the gradual transition of its product cartons to more sustainable packaging variants.

Frankfurt, 3 June 2026 – Hilscher employees joined the JP Morgan Corporate Challenge in Frankfurt alongside thousands of participants from across the region.

Additionally, the event also promotes several charitable initiatives.

Vimodrone, 28 May 2026 – Hilscher Italia celebrates 25 years of industrial communication in Italy. At SPS Italia 2026, the company presented solutions for Industrial Ethernet, IIoT, edge connectivity, and cybersecurity – including the new netFIELD Design-In service for scalable and secure industrial IT/OT integration.

Many production environments still rely on legacy machines without modern monitoring or remote access capabilities. In this success story, Hilscher and Derdack demonstrate how netFIELD and SIGNL4 enable edge-based event detection and mobile alerting to improve response times and increase operational reliability.

Pneumax performs a generational leap in its products and switches from one standard to another with an integrated netX 90 solution. The Italian automation specialist leverages netX 90 for flexible industrial communication in EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET and CC-Link IE Field networks.

On 22nd of April, the international Earth Day, sustainability takes center stage. What matters, however, is what happens on all the other days. Because sustainability is not a campaign. It is an ongoing responsibility.

Brückmann Elektronik and Burger Engineering used Hilscher’s netRAPID 90 embedded module to equip ultrasonic welding systems with PROFINET. In just nine months, they implemented a solution and successfully brought it to market.

The IIoT startup iDOO uses Hilscher's netFIELD edge management platform to digitally network machines of extrusion specialist iBA. This makes production data available in real time, allowing processes to be analyzed and optimized in a traceable manner. The result is greater transparency, reduced effort, and stable system operation. Read more in our success story.
