TURCK once again ranked among the top 50 mid-sized companies
Ranked 2nd in electrical engineering, 20th among 10,000 medium-sized companies: Markt und Mittelstand and Die Deutsche Wirtschaft have once again recognized TURCK as a top medium-sized company for 2026
In the “Germany’s Best SMEs 2026” ranking, TURCK continues to rank among the leading small and medium-sized enterprises. The magazine *Markt und Mittelstand*, in collaboration with its research partner *Die Deutsche Wirtschaft*, identified the top SMEs in 15 key industries—and once again honored TURCK, placing it prominently in multiple categories.
Top positions in industry and overall rankings
In the electrical engineering industry ranking, TURCK secured an outstanding 2nd place among the top 50 companies. The company also achieved a top position in the overall ranking of Germany’s 10,000 most important SMEs: 20th place among all evaluated companies.
Methodology: 39 criteria, neutral data set
The evaluation is based on 39 criteria and combines key metrics such as growth and revenue with factors such as innovative strength, digital visibility, and employer attractiveness. With this combination of quantitative data and qualitative criteria, the study particularly recognizes companies that operate successfully in the market over the long term and actively shape technological and structural change. German SMEs are considered the backbone of the economy—rankings like this one highlight particularly high-performing companies.
TURCK: A reliable partner for industrial automation
What makes TURCK one of Germany’s best SMEs? Above all, its innovative strength, international presence, and strong position as a reliable partner for industrial automation. With its broad portfolio—ranging from sensor technology to fieldbus and control technology to IIoT and software solutions—the company is consistently driving the digital transformation of industrial processes. The fact that innovative strength and economic strength are not mutually exclusive is demonstrated by the company’s renewed dual placement among the top tier of Germany’s leading SMEs.
Innovation as a driver of market leadership
Among the drivers of this ranking are concrete product innovations such as the self-learning AI camera TIV (TURCK Intelligent Vision), which brings artificial intelligence directly to the production line. The camera recognizes patterns, deviations, and object classes based on just a few sample images—without any complex programming. Readers of the trade journal *Computer&Automation* voted the TIV “Product of the Year 2026” in the image processing category in the 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards.
The backbone for the growing number of networked devices and applications is the TURCK Automation Suite (TAS): This IIoT and service platform combines device configuration, network management, condition monitoring, and cloud-based AI services—such as anomaly detection—into a single, centralized software solution. Together with the control-cabinet-free IP67 portfolio for decentralized control logic directly in the field, this results in a seamless automation concept—from the sensor to the cloud.
