Challenge

The company Schalt-Technik Huber GmbH in Munich has been in business for more than 50 years and has over 60 employees. It has steadily evolved from a switchgear manufacturer to a project company and today offers complete low-voltage solutions. The rapidly changing market is characterized by constantly growing energy demand and the challenge of decentralized, communications-capable power distribution. Against this backdrop, transparency for system status, energy consumption, capacity utilization, as well as service and maintenance, is taking on an increasingly important role, making digitalization indispensable in switchgear manufacturing.
"Digitalization has become indispensable to us in switchboard construction. Siemens is a strong partner particulary for a medium-sized company like ours."
Gisela Huber, Managing Director Schalt-Technik Huber GmbH
