A quick overview of the most important events in our company history.
Porsche request
The Porsche Motorsport Center is looking for an innovative process at the Institute of Plastics Technology at the University of Stuttgart to non-destructively test Carrera GT CFRP monocoques. This task became the starting point for the subsequent founding of the company.
Founding of edevis GmbH

Expansion of initial references
Continuation of Porsche cooperation and entry into aerospace: projects with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Eurocopter (now Airbus Helicopters).
First fully automated series system
For the BMW light metal foundry in Landshut, edevis is developing the world's first fully automated testing system for series control of composite crankcases (ultrasound + pulse-triggered thermography).
Strategic cooperation with thyssenkrupp Automotive
Joint development of a system for the fully automated inspection of laser welds on traction battery cell connectors — key technology for electric mobility.
