About Klaushofer Automation
Klaushofer Automation GmbH is an Austrian family business based in Werfen (Salzburg) that has been active in the automation industry since 1993. Its focus is on the overhaul and modernization of CNC controls (retrofit) for CNC lathes, CNC milling machines, machining centers, multi-process machines and special CNC machines, among others with Siemens Sinumerik controls (808D, 828D, 840Dsl). In addition, the company implements custom automation and special solutions such as control systems, mixing plants, gravel plants, hydraulic test benches, process control systems, industrial leak and flow tests as well as assembly, testing and packaging lines for the automotive industry. In the field of power engineering, the specialists design and build small hydroelectric power plants, combined heat and power (CHP) plants and reactive power compensation systems. The portfolio is complemented by software solutions for machine and operational data acquisition (PLCTick) as well as design, electrical work, control technology, programming and installation from a single source. Customer industries include the automotive industry, plant and electrical engineering, recycling, chemicals, sugar and concrete industries, crane technology, gravel plants, energy sector/hydropower as well as the wood industry/sawmills.
