What Montech AG does

Montech AG is a privately held Swiss machinery manufacturer founded in 1964 and headquartered in Derendingen, Switzerland, specializing in modular conveyor technology and aluminum framing systems for industrial automation. Its product portfolio spans belt conveyors (TB30 single/dual/tandem, TB40, GTB Max, and SOLTB variants including flat, cogged, and vacuum belt conveyors), gravity roller conveyors (RB4020 and RB5025 in single-, double-, tandem, and multi-track configurations), transfer systems (LT40 and LTE), aluminum framing systems (MPS 4020/5025 and Quick-Set 20/30/50), and machine guarding (Safety Hood SH and Safety Wall SW). Select models (TB30R, TB40R, and knife edge variants) hold Fraunhofer IPA TESTED DEVICE certifications for cleanroom use up to ISO 5, enabling deployment in pharmaceutical, semiconductor, and medical-device manufacturing. Recent 2026 launches include a fully modular RB4020/RB5025 roller conveyor family with seven-working-day delivery on customized orders.

The company operates a sales-led go-to-market through direct regional sales managers, an online product configurator, and an e-commerce shop for spare parts and accessories. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of configurable conveyor and framing systems, supplemented by in-house engineering services for complex custom solutions. Montech serves nine verticals — automotive, electronics, medical technology, pharmaceutical, packaging, plastics, airports, security, and vision systems — with named reference customers including Brembo, Doss Visual Solution, and Sintech. Geographic coverage is anchored in Switzerland with wholly-owned branches in Charlotte, NC (USA/Canada) and Balerna, Italy, supporting global shipment.

Montech is led by CEO Daniel Pauli, CSO Murat Simsir, and CFO Remo Studer, with a functional leadership team covering finance/HR, digital marketing, procurement, logistics, assembly, regional sales, and project sales.
