• Schaltbau Our prime area of competence is DC switchgear, where our ranges of snap action switches, contactors and waterproof connectors offer the highest levels of reliability, performance and safety. We are the longstanding sales partner of Schaltbau GmbH, whose established ranges of safety switches, DC contactors and circular connectors are offered from our extensive stock. Apart from the availability of standard products, we are also engaged in modifications of Schaltbau switches according to our customers' special requirements. We guarantee that when the customer specifies genuine Schaltbau products, this is exactly what we supply. In many cases we perform additional inspection procedures in line with our customers instructions, selecting or tightening up tolerances. This, on top of Schaltbau's already stringent quality procedures, makes it doubly sure that returns are a very rare occurance. Repairs to components or assemblies is also possible dependent on individual circumstances. Major markets for us are rail, mechanical handling, drive technology and industrial automation where our products are widely used in rail vehicle controls (traction/brake controllers, door control systems for the rail industry), mechanical handling devices such as dockside cranes or fork lift trucks and machine controls in general industry.
