What SCHILLER does
SCHILLER Medizintechnik GmbH is a German medical device company headquartered in Feldkirchen near Munich and a wholly-owned sales/service subsidiary of Swiss parent SCHILLER AG (Baar). Founded in 1974 and operating with 501-1,000 employees, the company manufactures and distributes a broad cardiopulmonary diagnostic portfolio spanning resting and stress ECG, Holter and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, spirometry and body plethysmography, ergospirometry, and defibrillation/AED systems. Core hardware includes the CARDIOVIT AT-180 diagnostic station, CARDIOVIT CS-104 PC-ECG, portable CARDIOVIT FT-1 and FT-2 tablets, the CS-200 OFFICE ERGOSPIRO for cardiopulmonary exercise testing, medilog Holter and ABDM systems, FRED easyport plus defibrillators, and the GANSHORN-branded SpiroScout, PowerCube Body+ and Provo.X pulmonary function line built on proprietary ultrasonic flow measurement. Software and integration revolve around the SEMA3 data management platform with HL7, DICOM, GDT and Imprivata Tap-and-Go authentication integrations.
The business model combines one-time hardware sales (€13,850-€16,790 per configured diagnostic system) with recurring service and maintenance contracts (PAD service packages, STK inspections every two years per MPBetreibV), accessories and consumables (electrodes, ScoutTube mouthpieces, ECG paper), and SEMA software licensing. SCHILLER goes to market via a direct enterprise field sales force backed by 10+ Germany-wide service branches organized by postal code (Munich, Karlsruhe, Stuttgart, Essen, Kassel, Hamburg, Lübeck, Berlin, Dresden, Rheine/GANSHORN, Nuremberg), reaching hospitals, cardiology and pneumology practices, emergency medical and rescue services, and PAD operators. Products are developed at the Swiss headquarters and manufactured at SCHILLER Médical S.A.S. in Wissembourg, France.
