What FMS-Technik does
FMS-Technik AG is a privately held Swiss industrial distribution and engineering services firm headquartered in Beringen, Schaffhausen, founded in 1989. The company holds an exclusive distribution partnership with Bosch Rexroth Schweiz AG covering German-speaking Switzerland and Ticino, through which it sells modular mechanical systems including aluminum profile construction kits, ergonomic assembly workstations, VarioFlow conveyor technology, ORGATEX organization tools, and Bosch screw systems. Beyond pure product distribution, FMS-Technik offers consulting, project planning, ergonomic workplace design, and custom fabrication of over 3,500 ISO-certified articles stocked at its Beringen warehouse for short-term delivery.
The company's product surface has expanded from its original mechanical elements base into adjacent categories: lean logistics equipment, Industry 4.0 solutions (resold from Bosch Rexroth, including ActiveCockpit, ActiveAssist, ActiveMover, and ActiveShuttle), and robotics integration. A separate sub-brand, FMS Design Line (fms-design.ch), markets modular office furniture built on the same aluminum profile platform. Free downloadable FMS-Soft CAD software supports customer-side design of modular configurations.
Revenue is generated through two primary streams: one-time product distribution (Bosch Rexroth modular systems and complementary products sold direct or via webshop) and professional services (consulting, engineering, and custom fabrication). Customer engagement occurs through direct field sales for complex enterprise projects, an e-commerce webshop for smaller purchases, and joint trade show participation with complementary partners such as tradepack at EMPACK. The firm serves industrial and manufacturing customers in Switzerland, with Thermoplan documented as a representative enterprise reference.
