What Swissray Technologies does

Swissray Technologies AG is a Swiss manufacturer of diagnostic X-ray systems founded in 1982 and headquartered in Hochdorf, Switzerland (Turbistrasse 25). The company designs, produces, and services a broad portfolio of imaging hardware for human and veterinary medicine, including direct digital radiography systems (ddRFormula Plus, ddRElement, ddRCruze), surgical and portable C-arms (SMART C Mini C-Arm via the Turner Imaging partnership, OSCAR Classic, EXTRON 7), a CE-marked and FDA 510(k)-cleared standing weight-bearing cone-beam CT (HiRise CurveBeam), a 3-in-1 HDVI veterinary DVT system (Vimago GT30), mammography (AIDIA), mobile X-ray (TOPAZ), and DRGEM-branded Swissray editions. Underlying technology centers on flat-panel and CMOS detectors, the proprietary SwissVision acquisition workstation, the eXpert control interface with its patented anatomical 1-2-3-point exposure system, DICOM/HL-7/IHE interoperability with PACS and RIS, and remote maintenance software. Swissray holds TÜV quality certification and Swiss FOPH approval for maintenance, repairs, and quality inspections.

The business model combines one-time capital equipment sales with recurring technical services and a smaller subscription/IT-security revenue line. Swissray sells directly to hospitals, radiology practices, orthopedic clinics, and veterinary practices in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), and serves the rest of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa through distribution channels. Since 2021 it has acted as exclusive importer of the Turner Imaging SMART-C in DACH, expanding to EU-wide distribution in March 2026. The company also markets cloud-based DICOM archiving and cybersecurity products (Cortex Anti Ransomware, First Safety Cyber Control) aligned to FMH's 11-point IT baseline protection framework, addressing the Swiss healthcare cybersecurity compliance gap. A small team of approximately 8-10 employees supports sales, service, and operations, with active hiring for service technician and IT specialist roles.
