About Zahner Electronic
Zahner Electronic AG is a Swiss company specialized in automation, electrical engineering and control panel construction, headquartered in Kaltbrunn in the canton of St. Gallen. Since 1981, the company has developed and manufactured customized control and automation systems – from risk analysis and the safety concept, through schematic creation with EPLAN P8, to the assembly of complex control cabinets, cable assembly and on-site commissioning. Manufacturing covers one-off productions and series production from compact control cabinets to large-scale switchgear systems, as well as customer-specific cable sets, cable harnesses and energy chains including EMC-compliant processing. Industries served include mechanical and plant engineering, mobile work machines (municipal, construction, agricultural and forestry machinery, lifting and conveying technology) as well as building automation. As a full-service provider, Zahner also offers individual engineering services, software development in CODESYS and Siemens TIA, and retrofit solutions for modernizing existing systems. The quality management system is certified to ISO 9001:2015.
