About foxtec® engineering
foxtec® engineering GmbH is an engineering office specializing in industrial automation, headquartered in Gommiswald with a site in Lichtensteig (Canton of St. Gallen, Switzerland). The company plans and develops automation systems for processes, machines and plants, including process automation, machine safety, batch tracking, remote maintenance, retrofit and network virtualization. With over 15 years of experience in the food industry, the focus is on cheese dairies and milk processing; the in-house developed Käsereisteuerung.CH covers processes such as milk intake, pasteurization, pre-pressing, CIP cleaning and dosing applications as a modular system. Further fields of application include wastewater treatment, woodchip heating systems with H2 injection, wood and metalworking machines, positioning and drive solutions as well as transport systems and sorting machines. Together with a partner, the company implements complete process-optimized plants in which plant engineering and control systems are matched to each other. Customers include the Säntis Käserei Genossenschaft, staedler automation AG and Käserei Tschumper GmbH.
