About Bodensee Automation GmbH
Bodensee Automation GmbH is an engineering office specializing in industrial automation, headquartered in Degersheim in the canton of St. Gallen, Switzerland. The company develops software for programmable logic controllers (PLCs), plans processes for machines and systems, and accompanies control projects from planning through to commissioning. Further services include visualization (HMI/SCADA) for small to large systems, process automation, electrical and flow diagrams, measurement and control technology, logging and analysis as well as the creation, commissioning and repair of electrical products. The software is based on a flexible standard for Siemens controllers (S5, Simatic S7-300, S7-400) that has been continuously developed for around 30 years; the employees' programs have been in use for around 20 years, among other things in biogas plants. The company serves biogas plants, water and wastewater technology, automatic parking systems, dairies, lifting and conveying technology, meat processing, gravel and concrete plants, and power plants as customer segments. Its area of operation covers Eastern Switzerland, Vorarlberg and southern Germany.
