Beckhoff Automation AG will rent the entire fourth floor in the worsted west wing. The company realizes open automation systems based on PC-based control technology. The product range includes the main areas of industrial PC, I/O and fieldbus components, drive technology, automation software, control cabinet-free automation and hardware for industrial image processing. This New Automation Technology stands for universal and industry-independent control and automation solutions that are used worldwide in a wide variety of applications – from CNC-controlled machine tools to intelligent building control.
The parent company Beckhoff Automation GmbH & Co. KG, headquartered in Verl, Germany, employs 5,500 people worldwide (March 2024) and achieved sales of 1.75 billion euros in 2023. The innovation-driven family company relies on a locally oriented corporate culture combined with a strong technical philosophy. The headquarters of the Swiss branch with the customer training center has been in Schaffhausen/Neuhausen since 1999. There are currently 58 employees working in Switzerland. The training offering at the Kammgarn location will be able to be massively expanded in the future.
By renting the fourth floor to Beckhoff Automation AG, the worsted west wing can be ideally supplemented with economic use. The new, modern premises are expected to be ready for occupancy in mid-2026.
