Simatec Maschinenbau AG
About
Simatec Maschinenbau AG is a Swiss machinery manufacturer based in Horw, founded in 2014, specializing in customized chamber filter presses and complete water treatment systems for the stone, earth, and recycling industries. With 20–49 employees, Simatec designs and builds all products to order with a focus on Swiss manufacturing quality and bespoke engineering — no off-the-shelf products are offered. Their chamber filter presses process up to 9,300 dm³ of sludge suspension per pressing cycle and are available in three configurations: KFP-A (standard automatic), KFP-AK (with enhanced features), and KFP-U (universal). Standard options include automatic cloth washing robots, drip trays, core blow units, membrane compression with air-filled (up to 1,000 mm) or water-filled (over 1,200 mm) membranes, filter cake washing, and air drying. Beyond filter presses, Simatec offers the Gravelwash system for sand, gravel, and soil excavation sludge — integrating chamber filter presses with high clarifiers, sludge stack silos, process water silos, and flocculant dosing stations — plus Cemwash for cement industry sludge and Drillwash for drilling sludge. The company also manufactures screening machines (ellipse, linear, and circular oscillator types) and roll crushers, and develops in-house sedimentation measurement and sensor technology integrated into custom control systems. All products are designed and manufactured in Horw, Switzerland.
