About Elektroschmiede GmbH
Elektroschmiede GmbH in St. Johann (Upfingen), Baden-Württemberg, manufactures control and power cabinets, operator panels, control pedestals, control desks as well as energy and installation distribution boards (CEE power columns). The service portfolio includes circuit diagram creation with EPLAN P8, PLC programming (Siemens TIA Portal, Step7, Logo!, CodeSys, Pilz, Schneider), in-house cable harness production, wiring to plan as well as commissioning and system integration. Small-series cabinets are produced in lot sizes of 10 to 200 units per month with CNC-machined front panels. A fully automated machining center processes control cabinets and mounting plates (drilled holes, threads, milling) and handles sheet metal working. In addition, the company realizes special plant engineering and mechanical engineering as well as retrofit/plant modernization with modern control and drive technology. Customers come from mechanical engineering, automation technology and control cabinet construction.
