About SOMARITEC
SOMARITEC GmbH, based in Wald-Michelbach, is a specialist in custom special machinery and plant engineering with a focus on ultrasonic welding and sewing automation. The company develops and manufactures machines and systems including those for the production of filter bags and filter hoses, among them the FTNA-300 filter bag sewing system, the SFA-200 filter hose sewing and welding system, and the fully automatic CT-UWF1 ultrasonic filter bag welding system. The portfolio is complemented by apparatus such as extraction systems, hole punching machines, stretching devices, carton folding systems, cross cutters, printers, marking systems and hot cutting systems. In addition to building new machines, SOMARITEC offers mechanical design (3-D design, drawings, documentation), control engineering with electrical design in Eplan, control cabinet construction and Siemens PLC programming, prototype construction, parts and assembly manufacturing, commissioning, as well as maintenance, servicing and CE conformity of existing systems. Core competencies include sewing technology, ultrasonic, adhesive and hot-melt technology, unwinding and rewinding technology, and cutting, folding, conveying and stacking technology. The company supplies customers within the European Union and operates bilingually (German/English).
