VSK

What VSK does

VSK-Technik Kübler GmbH is a family-owned German industrial engineering services company headquartered in Worms, Rhineland-Palatinate, founded on 1 June 1970 and 100% in family ownership since 2009. The company delivers four integrated service pillars — Antriebstechnik (drive technology, including pump technology), Automatisierung (automation), Elektrotechnik (electrical engineering, including medium-voltage and switchgear manufacturing up to 4,500 A), and Mechanik (mechanics, including DIN EN 1090-certified steel construction) — covering the full lifecycle from planning and engineering through fabrication, assembly, commissioning, maintenance, and inspection. It serves industrial customers in automotive supply, chemical/pharmaceutical, paper, plastics, food and feed, recycling, and water/wastewater segments across Germany, with secondary capability areas in temporary staffing (Arbeitnehmerüberlassung under the AÜG) and an in-house stocked motor warehouse (Motorenlager) for rapid-swap drives.

Technically, VSK is a vertically integrated workshop that combines in-house motor repair, hermetically sealed positive-displacement pump system manufacture (ring-piston, peristaltic, vane-cell), type-tested low-voltage switchgear production, and certified welding (DIN EN 1090). Its automation offering is built around system integration of ABB (Freelance 2000/800xA), Siemens (PCS 7, WinCC, Profibus/Profinet), Wonderware (INTOUCH/INBATCH), FlowChief, and Emotron drive electronics, supported by condition-monitoring capabilities (surge-voltage winding testing, vibration measurement, laser-optical alignment). Regulatory certifications — DIN EN ISO 9001, DIN EN ISO 45001:2023, §14 Abs. 6 BetrSichV (explosion-protected motor repair), DIN EN 1090, SCC checklist, WHG, and AÜG — function as both compliance and competitive barriers.

The business model is quote-based, project-driven industrial services delivered under a single project-management umbrella. Revenue is generated from four streams: project-based industrial engineering services, hardware sales of motors and drive components from the in-house Motorenlager, recurring after-sales maintenance contracts and DGUV inspections, and licensed temporary staffing of qualified technicians via the AÜG certificate. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies per engagement; go-to-market is enterprise field sales into German Mittelstand and industrial plant operators, with over 50 years of customer relationships and a workforce of approximately 120–150 employees, many trained in-house through the company's apprenticeship program.

Revenue model

1. Project-based industrial engineering services: End-to-end project execution (planning, engineering, fabrication, assembly, commissioning, maintenance) for industrial electrical, automation, drive and mechanical projects — predominantly custom/B2B project revenue, one-off per engagement.
2. Spare parts and drive component sales: Sale of new motors (ATB, VEM), frequency inverters (Emotron, ABB), soft starters, motor load monitors, spare parts and individual drive components from a continuously expanded in-house motor warehouse.
3. After-sales maintenance and service contracts: Recurring maintenance contracts (Wartungsverträge), repairs, welding work, retrofit/upgrade projects, and inspection services (e.g., DGUV electrical inspections, Betr.Sich.V. testing) producing ongoing service revenue.
4. Temporary staffing (Arbeitnehmerüberlassung): Holding the AÜG Arbeitnehmerüberlassung certificate allows the company to lease qualified technical staff to clients, a separate revenue stream from project services.

Core offering

VSK-Technik Kübler GmbH is an industrial engineering services provider operating four integrated service pillars: Antriebstechnik (Drive Technology, including electric motor repair, an in-house motor warehouse, and pump systems), Automatisierung (Automation, covering PLC/SCADA programming, process control technology, and visualization), Elektrotechnik (Electrical Engineering, including medium/low-voltage switchgear, control cabinets, and electrical inspections), and Mechanik (Mechanics, including steel construction and custom special machines). The company executes projects end-to-end — planning, fabrication, assembly, commissioning, and lifetime maintenance — as a system integrator of ABB, Siemens, and Wonderware automation platforms.

Product overview

VSK-Technik Kübler GmbH delivers four integrated core service lines that together form its industrial-technical portfolio rather than a single software product: Antriebstechnik (Drive Technology, including the in-house Motorenlager motor warehouse and Pumpentechnik sub-line), Automatisierung (Automation, encompassing Netzwerktechnik, SPS programming, Prozessleittechnik with ABB Freelance 800xA and Siemens PCS 7, and Visualisierung via Wonderware and WinCC), Elektrotechnik (Electrical Engineering, covering Engineering, Industriemontage, After-Sale Service, Schaltanlagenbau, Messungen, Prüfungen, and Mittelspannungstechnik), and Mechanik (Mechanics, with steel/metal construction certified to DIN EN 1090 and custom special-machine builds). These four pillars are delivered under one project-management umbrella from planning and engineering through manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and lifetime maintenance, with VSK acting as a system integrator of ABB and Wonderware automation platforms.
