About our name:
AXTAL stands for Advanced XTAL Products, where "XTAL" is a common abbreviation of "crystals".


About our company: AXTAL was established in 2003 as a spun-off from the previous TELE QUARZ  by Bernd Neubig, a Physicist and Electronic Engineer. Its staff comprises more than 50 years of cumulated experience and expertise in the Quartz Crystal Industry.
The company is privately owned by Bernd and Brigitte Neubig, who are also General Managers of the company. The legal name of the entity is AXTAL GmbH & Co. KG.
AXTAL's facilities are located in Southern Germany, close to Heidelberg, in the so-called "Crystal Valley area". Whereas the administration is in Lobbach, the R&D Lab and the production facility reside in the Center of Young Entrepreneurs called "Ideenwerkstatt" in Mosbach.
About our quality:
ISO9001
AXTAL assures a high level of quality and reliability of its products due to our well established Quality Management System (QMS) as documented and fixed in our Quality Management Handbook (QMH). Already in the product design phase we apply a controlled design process, with a number of verification steps and final validation in the customer application. With our tight control of our well-documented manufacturing processes (SPC), numerous in-line tests and inspections including a 100 % final inspection of the manufactured products, with a traceable data base of the test results we have tight control of the quality level. A thorough incoming inspection of all purchased critical parts makes sure, that suspect components do not enter our production. A system of continuous improvement is established through our quality circle with members from R&D, production, and qualtity management.
AXTAL's quality system and processes were inspected and approved through audits of major customers.
AXTAL is certified to ISO9001:2008 (see our certificate).                                                                                 
About our products: AXTAL focuses on the Design, Development, Production, Testing, and the Sales of Frequency Control Products and Piezo Sensors, which includes crystal resonators, crystal oscillators, crystal filters, and modules comprising quartz and other piezoelectric crystal resonators, such as Langasite (LGS) and Langatage (LGT) as well as SAW resonators.
About our lines: AXTAL's genuine products are supplemented by a variety of products, which we offer from our principals. Our line card includes (amongst others)
     FOMOS - the world leading manufacturer of Langasite (LGS) and Langatate (LGS)
     SCTB ELBA - an experienced expert for piezoelectric sensor elements and modules
 
About our services: Unlike most distributors of Frequency Control Products, AXTAL is capable to do in-house testing, screening, and qualification tests of crystals, oscillators and filters, based on recognized IEC and MIL standards. We offer our customers qualified support to solve problems in their particular application.
