Hardware Engineering
Based on the machine layout and relevant standards, we create a complete electrical schematic with a parts list, cabinet layout, and detailed specifications as comprehensive documentation. The documents are created in EPLAN P8 and are available to you both as a project file and as an interactive PDF.
In close collaboration with our customers, components are selected to achieve an optimal cost-benefit ratio. All safety-relevant components are designed to meet the required performance level. Today, an electrical schematic is far more than a simple circuit diagram. A well-documented system facilitates maintenance, enables expansions, and thus guarantees a high level of operational reliability.
We primarily use the following software:
- EPLAN Electric P8
- IFA SISTEMA
Software Engineering
Whether you have a detailed specification or just a general idea of the overall process, we are passionate about technology. We immerse ourselves in a wide variety of processes and translate them into the world of bits and bytes. As a mechanical engineer, you benefit from our extensive experience in the following areas:
- Windows-Applications
- CPU-Programs
- Servo-Technology
- Robotics
- Elektronics
We are large enough to distribute expertise among several employees and small enough to respond quickly and easily to individual requests.
We primarily utilize the following components:
- Siemens (S5, S7, TIA), Allen-Bradley, Beckhoff, Bosch-Rexroth für CPU-Controllers and visualizations (we “speak” SCL and – if necessary – also FUP, KOP or AWL)
-
Visual Studio .NET for Windows applications
-
Bosch-Rexroth, Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Danfoss, Nord drive controllers
-
Mitsubishi for robot applications
Consulting & Project Management
We are happy to support you in finding solutions by developing control concepts or taking on project management tasks. We can also provide manpower to work within a project team. Benefit from our expertise at attractive hourly rates.
We have experience in a wide range of areas: from manure removal systems and metal forming plants to test benches, saws, woodworking machinery, and large-scale plants in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
A typical project includes the following services:
- Fixed-price offer based on a specification or machine layout
- Electrical planning
- Control cabinet construction with partner company
- Program creation, security program, visualization
- Commissioning
- Production support
- Documentation
In most cases, not all the details are known at the start of a project. We accept this fact and prioritize fair cooperation. Achieving the shared goal takes precedence over economic success. We are passionate about technology and don’t want to involve lawyers.
Complete solutions from a single source – tailored to your needs
Retrofit, Projects & Special machine construction
You build machines, we take care of the electrification, control, and visualization – tailored precisely to your needs and requirements. Every system has a specific number of actuators and sensors. And that’s usually where the interface between mechanics and electronics lies. We ensure that the sensor data is correctly interpreted and control the motors accordingly.

Partnership for serial products
You are the specialist for mechanical solutions; we offer the optimal control system – both for new developments and for comprehensive control system support. Thanks to our broad range of experience, you benefit from synergies gained from other projects. As a collaborative engineering firm with multiple specialists, our expertise is not limited to individual employees. With intelligent software, you can create a unique selling proposition to ensure market success.

Maintenance & Service
We offer support for the maintenance of third-party equipment in the Gossau SG area. Since not all control systems are from us, we also provide troubleshooting assistance for third-party systems. A systematic approach is crucial for efficient troubleshooting. Thanks to our experience, we have often been able to get production up and running again quickly. Challenge us!
