Expertise Through Experience
Schlemmer Prozess Systeme GmbH (SPS) is an automation company based in Deggendorf in Lower Bavaria that has been developing individual automation solutions for the process and manufacturing industries since 1992. The company plans and programs programmable logic controllers (SIMATIC), machine controls and drive technology (SIMOTION, SINUMERIK) as well as process control systems based on SIMATIC PCS 7. Further service components include visualization systems (WinCC, Wizcon, Control Maestro), CAE-supported electrical engineering with EPLAN and WSCAD, control cabinet construction, retrofit modernizations, simulation, commissioning, remote-access support and employee training. A focus is the glass industry with controls for batch plants, melting tanks, day tanks, blow molding machines and cooling belts; further industries are paper, chemicals, pharmaceuticals as well as food and beverage technology. The team of around ten employees is complemented by specialists from a partner network and has completed more than 750 projects for over 85 customers.
